Before you go
Stop at the summit obelisk, then again a couple of kilometres down the south side for the Casse Déserte itself.
Which way round
North to south, Briançon to Arvieux, so the Casse Déserte opens up ahead of you.
When it’s open
Usually open Jun to Oct. Opening depends on the snow, so check the status before you go.
