After a few hundred metres surrounded by forest, admire the view of the Vaud Alps and Mont Blanc. This walk takes you to the Verneyre refuge, where you can enjoy typical local dishes. From the Verneyre refuge, you can continue your walk to the Col de la Croix. The return journey follows the same route. At any point during the hike, you can turn back and easily return to the starting point.
