Guidebook with maps/step-by-step
From the car park, take the footpath on the right that leads up to the Chalets de Rosset. The path then runs alongside the cliff, into the forest to then come out onto a meadow. It then leads up to a flat area in the middle of the pastures. From there, in approximately 1 hour, a footpath on the left leads along the ridge and then up to the summit (1,963 m).
