Unusual Chamechaude via L'Arche, Le Jardin, La Brêche Arnaud and Le Canyon

Visorando member

Chamechaude insolite par L'Arche, le Jardin, la Brêche Arnaud et le Canyon

Extremely difficult

Departure from Sarcenas (Isère)

A challenging hike that allows you to discover the most beautiful (and least known) landscapes around the summit of Chamechaude. The route includes a few fun climbs and descents, a very short off-trail section, a breach through a cliff, a spectacular couloir and an aerial sangle overlooking numerous chamois, a guaranteed spectacle for anyone aiming to reach the summit before midday. The route is far from the summer and Sunday crowds.

Chamechaude circular via the Arche, the Rampe de l'Écureuil and the Canyon

Chamechaude en boucle par l'Arche, la Rampe de l'Écureuil et le Canyon

Departure from Sarcenas (Isère)

This circular aims to offer alternatives to the very busy normal route, allowing you to discover lesser-known aspects of Chamechaude, the highest point in the Chartreuse. Without being as technical as the Arnaud breach or as exposed as the Sangle du Jardin, this route is off the beaten track: it therefore sometimes requires a sense of direction and certain (short) steep passages require effort and attention. Please read the Practical Information section carefully.
