It is situated at the head of the Géant Glacier. It lies east of the Aiguilles d'Entrèves (from which it is separated by the Col Orientale de Toule) and west of the Grand Flambeau (from which it is separated by the Col Occidental de Toule.) It is sometimes referred to as the Aiguille de Toula.[3]


Climbing


The mountain was first climbed on 10 August 1895 by Giovanni Bobba, Luigi Vaccarone, Casimiro Thérisod and Pietro Re Fiorentin.[3]

The Aiguille de Toule can be readily accessed from the Torino Hut/Pointe Helbronner.[2][4] The easiest means of ascent is via the east face, a mixed rock and snow route, graded on the French adjectival climbing scale at F+/PD-.[3]

Other short climbing routes on the mountain include the north and the northeast faces, both graded AD.[4]
