Tête de Parmelan, Mountain summit in Haute-Savoie, France
The Tête de Parmelan reaches an elevation of 1832 meters and presents two distinct trails: the Petit Montoir and the Grand Montoir routes.
The summit has served as a significant reference point for local mountaineers since the establishment of marked paths in the Aravis mountain range.
Local mountain guides maintain traditional practices by organizing seasonal group expeditions to teach alpine navigation and safety techniques to new generations.
Visitors should verify access conditions between December and April, as certain sections of the mountain paths close during winter months.
The limestone plateau near the summit contains numerous geological formations that create a distinct pattern visible from aerial perspectives.
