The Petite Bosse (French: Little Hump) is a snowy bulge, culminating at 4,547 m, on the border of France and Italy on the so-called normal routes towards the summit of Mont Blanc (the Bosses Ridge), between the Grande Bosse and the rocky protrusion known as the Rocher(s) de la Tournette. These humps, together called les Bosses, are not regarded by the UIAA as primary 4000 metre summits of the Alps, but the organisation does nevertheless include them on its 'Enlarged list of lesser summits'. It is the last elevating obstacle to be scaled by climbing parties on the final part of the itinerary to the top shared by the popular Goûter Route and the Grand Mulets Route.
There's an alpine trail (T4) called Les Bosses leading to the summit. Petite Bosse is one of the 5 peaks along the The Goûter.
The nearest mountain hut is Refuge Vallot located 542m/1 780ft NW of the summit.
By elevation Petite Bosse is
# 12 out of 60693 in the Alps # 6 out of 2223 in the Graian Alps # 4 out of 35442 in France # 12 out of 42694 in Italy # 4 out of 9907 in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes # 6 out of 1186 in Aosta Valley # 4 out of 1207 in Upper Savoy # 6 out of 581 in the Mont Blanc massif
