Mont Grelle, Mountain summit in Savoie, France

Mont Grelle rises to an elevation of 1,427 meters within the Chaîne de l'Épine range, presenting limestone formations characteristic of the Jura Mountains.

The geological formation of Mont Grelle occurred during the Alpine orogeny, which shaped the entire Jura mountain range through tectonic forces millions of years ago.

Local mountaineering groups maintain several marked trails to the summit, continuing a long tradition of Alpine path preservation in the Savoie region.

Hikers can access Mont Grelle through the hamlet of Attignat-Oncin, with the trailhead beginning at Mollard du Pin and leading to the mountain's peak.

From the summit, visitors can observe Lake Aiguebelette's deep blue waters while standing at the highest point of the Épine anticline formation.
