The mountain is the highest peak of Cottian Alps outside the Monviso area.
In the French subdivision of Western Alps it belongs to the Massif du Mont-Cenis.
Administratively the mountain is divided between the commune of Avrieux (F - north-west and north-east faces) and the comune of Bardonecchia (I - southern face).
On its Italian side at 1,979 metres above sea level stands the artificial lake of Rochemolles while on the French side is situated the small lake of Scolette (2686 metres).
Access to the summit
The easiest route for the summit starts from the Col de Pelouse, which connects Avrieux and Bardonecchia, and follows the SW ridge and then the NW face of the mountain.[4]
