Mont du Chat lookout (1504 m)

Highlight • Lake

Very difficult summit, 10% average for 12km from Le Bourget du lac, no respite.
The view at the top is worth it and in high season there is a restaurant bar for refueling.

The ascent of Col du Chat on the east side offers a fantastic view of the lake below. Enjoy the view during the ascent because once at the top, the environment will be wooded. The pass culminates at 638 meters above sea level.
