The Charmant Som, splendid belvedere, is quite easy to reach (with 200 meters difference in height). It is one of the only peaks in Chartreuse which is not a sharpen crest but a curved mount with alpine pastures.

Accessible from the Col de Porte via a small paved road (closed in winter) from mid-November to mid-May, the Charmant Som lookout offers a majestic view of the Chartreuse Mountains. Near the parking lot is an inn serving mountain cuisine and dairy products. Crossing the alpine pasture—about a 30-minute walk—brings you above the Combe Noire, where you can see the Grande Chartreuse Monastery and La Correrie below.
