How to get to Crêt de la neige from tiocan?
Though it is possible to climb Crêt de la Neige directly from Tiocan, it is common to perform a traverse along the ridge linking Le Reculet and Crêt de la Neige. It should be noted that, due to their common access point and nearby location, much of the information between this article and the one for Le Reculet will overlap.
What is the difference between Reculet and Crêt de la neige?
The nearby Reculet, despite being 3 m less high, is more impressive looking as it is considerably higher than any nearby hill and, as a result, it is more heavily blasted by wind causing there to be no trees and less vegetation than on Crêt de la Neige.
