Pointe de Pramecou, Mountain summit in Tignes, France.

The Pointe de Pramecou reaches an elevation of 3,009 meters and stands within the Vanoise massif, overlooking the Doron de Champagny valley and Pramort glacier.

The current formation of Pointe de Pramecou emerged through Upper Jurassic tectonic movements and subsequent glacial erosion that shaped its limestone and marble composition.

Mountaineers and hikers traverse this peak in Vanoise National Park to undertake technical climbing routes and engage in backcountry skiing adventures.

Reaching Pointe de Pramecou requires complete mountaineering equipment and proficiency in mountain navigation to manage potential hazards along the routes.

The geological structure of Pointe de Pramecou reveals a sequence of Lower Jurassic schist limestone and Triassic gypsum deposits at Col du Palet.
