Rocher de l'Yret, Mountain summit in Hautes-Alpes, France.
The Rocher de l'Yret rises to an elevation of 2,656 meters, featuring steep rock faces and a prominent ridge formation in the Massif des Écrins.
The via ferrata route underwent substantial modifications in 2000, incorporating more natural rock surfaces instead of relying on metal climbing aids.
Local mountaineers maintain numerous marked trails around Rocher de l'Yret, connecting the peak to the broader network of Écrins National Park paths.
Access to the summit begins at Route des Guibertes near Les Charmettes, covering 11.9 kilometers with an elevation gain of 1,338 meters.
The ridge climb switches between different sides of the mountain, requiring climbers to traverse back and forth along the exposed rock face.
