Le Petit Mont Blanc is a mountain in France located in Savoie, in the Vanoise massif, above Courchevel and Pralognan-la-Vanoise.

Its summit, culminating at an altitude of 2,680 meters, is marked by an orientation table.

The mountain is made of gypsum, just like the crest of Mont Charvet and the Dent du Villard to the north or the Col du Soufre to the south, which gives it its chaotic appearance with its sides covered with scree and notched by erosion.
