Roche du Grand Argentier, Mountain summit in Savoie, France
The Roche du Grand Argentier reaches an elevation of 3,042 meters and features a dolomite escarpment on its western face toward Fontaine Froide valley.
The mountain contains old military structures near Col de la Roue, indicating its strategic position along the French-Italian border during past conflicts.
French mountaineers refer to this peak as Grand Argentier while Italian climbers name it Punta Nera, reflecting the cross-border nature of the mountain.
The ascent starts from Valfréjus near Modane, following a marked trail through steep terrain with slopes reaching 40 degrees in the southern section.
The summit connects to neighboring Punta Nera through a high-altitude saddle at 2,996 meters, creating a natural boundary between two mountain valleys.
