This is a magnificent route in fine weather, as the view from the crests stretches from the Mont Blanc chain to the main Swiss peaks. This area of ridges and passes was once a smuggling route between France and Switzerland.
Whichever walk you choose, we recommend that you :
- Wear appropriate footwear and always take with you: warm clothing, preferably waterproof, plenty of water, sunglasses, sun cream and a small first-aid kit.
- Do not set off alone.
- Inform someone living in the valley of your plans.
- Do not change the planned itinerary indiscriminately. But do not hesitate to shorten it if necessary.
- Carry a map and even a torch.
- Check the weather forecast before setting off.
- In the event of a thunderstorm, move away from ridges, passes and summits as soon as possible and never take shelter under an isolated tree.
From 01/06 to 31/10.
Subject to favorable snow and weather conditions.
