Le Plenay

Le Plenay is a mountain summit in Haute-Savoie that rises to about 1,500 meters. Rocky outcrops and alpine plants cover the slopes, creating a varied landscape.

This peak formed through natural geological processes over long periods and has been explored by local climbers for many generations. Its formation has contributed to scientific understanding of the Alpine region.

The mountain serves as a natural landmark for regional festivals and gatherings, where communities celebrate traditional Alpine customs.

Hikers can reach Le Plenay by following marked trails that begin in the valley below. The best time to climb is between June and September, when weather conditions are most favorable.

The summit's location creates special wind and temperature conditions. These microclimates allow rare plant species to grow in ways that would not be possible elsewhere on the mountain.
