Pelvoux Massif

The Pelvoux massif is perhaps the most impressive group of mountains in the French Alps after Mont Blancentury. It is now designated as a National Park, with glaciers, mountain valleys and breathtaking panoramic views. The highest peaks are the Ecrins (4,102m/13,459ft), the Meije (3,983m/13,068ft), the Ailefroide (3,953m/12,970ft) and Mont Pelvoux itself (3,946m/12,947ft).
