The roof of the Chablais from Morzine
The highest point in the Chablais massif at 2,466 meters, the Hauts-Forts are a demanding and spectacular alpine climb. -
From Morzine, this emblematic summit has to be earned, but the reward on arrival is well worth the effort: breathtaking views of the Dents du Midi, Mont Blanc, the Swiss Alps and Lake Geneva.
The route generally starts in Avoriaz or from the Prodains gondola, with a gradual ascent via the Col de Chavanette, before tackling the final, steeper and more mineral section, sometimes equipped with cables (aerial but safe passages). The return journey can be made by the same route or as a loop...From Morzine, this emblematic summit has to be earned, but the reward on arrival is well worth the effort: breathtaking views of the Dents du Midi, Mont Blanc, the Swiss Alps and Lake Geneva.
