Description

Imagine: Crossing the Dent de Crolles mountain, located in the Chartreuse massif, in its width, from west to east! That's what the trou du Glaz-Annette cave crossing proposes.

Shafts, meanders and large galleries make up the 2,3 kilometers of a varied and history-laden route. The end of the crossing also represents a moment of intense emotion: Immersed in the mountains for about 7 hours, you will have deserved breathtaking view of Grenoble, the Grésivaudan valley, Belledonne range and even Mont Blanc in the distance, at an altitude of 1700 meters.

Sporty challenge for some, an extraordinary adventure for others, one thing is certain: once this crossing has been completed, you will no longer see the Dent the Crolles the same way.

I also offer other outings at similar levels: the Solitaire gallery and the Tritons boulevard, the trou du Glaz-Guiers Mort traverse and the P40-trou du Glaz traverse. There are also more technical caving routes, such as the Collecteur or the 2-day tour of the Dent de Crolles caves.
