Description

Detour via the Ardé-chons due to risk of landslide. Magnificent trail route with forested and lunar landscapes. Technical sections towards the end!

This trail starts at the top of the village of Vercorin and takes you to discover the peaks of the region. Follow the Tracuit route then evolve in the upper Réchy valley. You will reach the sublime Lac du Louché before continuing towards the Becs de Bosson at 3149 m altitude. It is not uncommon to see snow there even in summer! During your run, don't forget to enjoy these lunar landscapes.

The second part of this route will take you across Roc de la Tsa, Roc d'Orzival, and the Brinta, before descending to Mont Major and finishing your outing at Crêt du Midi.

Warning! This second part proves more technical due to screes on the route. The path is equipped with chains but can be vertiginous.
