Pointe de Nantaux

Highlight • Summit

It's very steep to the summit, but worth it for the amazing views of Mont Blanc and the Morzine area.

I would only attempt to reach the summit in good weather and you need a head for heights.

No snow cover at the bottom, some wind crust in the middle then a hard, icy traverse at the top. I would recommend taking an axe if heading up in winter.
