Pointe du Tuet, Alpine summit in Samoëns, France.
Pointe du Tuet is an alpine summit rising to 1828 meters in Haute-Savoie, featuring a mix of rock formations and grassy sections. The mountain offers multiple climbing routes of varying difficulty across its different faces and slopes.
The peak was developed as a training ground for mountaineers before tackling more demanding neighboring summits. This role established it as an important location for developing climbing skills in the local area.
The climbing routes carry names like 'Les copains d'abord' and 'Ligne de vie', reflecting the community spirit of local climbers.
The ascent begins at Chemin de la Falaise in Le Crêt and requires sure footing on mixed terrain. Plan to spend time navigating between climbing sections and grassy slopes during your visit.
The climbing routes span difficulty grades from 5b to 6a+, with grassy areas creating natural breaks between them. This arrangement allows climbers to rest during their ascent and makes the peak accessible to different skill levels.
