Weather-model estimates at the stated altitude of each point, not measurements. Forecast snowfall is not the depth of snow on the ground. Source: Open-Meteo, updated every hour.
The Cormet de Roselend links the Beaufortain with the Haute Tarentaise. This page gives the weather at the altitude of the pass and the official source for checking the road.
In short. The Cormet de Roselend is at an altitude of 1,968 m (D925). The status shown at the top of the page (open, closed or partly open) is the one published by the Département de la Savoie on Savoie Route, with its update time; a webcam does not confirm that a pass is open. The page also gives the weather calculated at the pass’s altitude, the announced schedule and the official links.
Understanding the conditions
Is the Cormet de Roselend open?
For the 2026 season, the Département de la Savoie (the local authority) announced the opening on 22 May (initially announced for 13 May, revised on 12 May) (press release of 23 April 2026, updated on 12 May 2026). This is a provisional schedule, subject to the weather and to roadworks. The current status at the top of the page is the one published by the Département on Savoie Route: Savoie Snow shows it as published, with its date, and does not work it out itself. If in doubt, the official source prevails.
The forecast at the top of the page is calculated by the Open-Meteo model for the pass itself, at its altitude of 1,968 m: temperature, wind and the rain-snow line there differ markedly from the neighbouring valleys. These are model estimates, not measurements taken at the pass, and forecast snowfall does not tell you whether the road is passable.
Beaufortain and Haute Tarentaise
The Cormet belongs to the Beaufortain but opens towards Bourg-Saint-Maurice and the Haute Tarentaise. To compare the weather across several parts of the massif, see the Beaufortain weather page.
No webcam installed at the pass itself is listed here with a usable source. This page therefore does not show a view of another place in its stead.
