Snowshoe trail no. 2
(S/E) From the resort reception, turn right at the “Vachères” ski lift and follow the path lined with boxwood. At the first clearing, leave this path on the right to continue the route into the forest.
(1) At the junction with the road, cross it and continue straight ahead, skirting the field on the left. Return to the road. Cross it and take the route opposite leading into the forest. The path, clearly marked at the start, then continues through the undergrowth. Follow the specific snowshoe markings carefully.
(2) Follow the track to the right until you reach the junction with the Grande Randonnée (GR® ) trail (marked in white and red). From there, take theGR® to the left and follow it up the Ravin des Aiguilles (torrent). On reaching the ski area (take care, skiers may be coming from the right), cross the slopes to rejoin the route opposite. Cross the small ridge above the slopes and continue uphill, following the ski run to reach the top of the “Champ Tondu 2” ski lift.
(3) For safety reasons, pass at the foot of the last pylon (as close as possible to the markings). Continue along the piste to descend on the other side for 50m. Then take the path that climbs to the right. At the junction, turn left; the route climbs and follows a small ridge line.
(4) Leaving this ridge line to the right, the route descends through the Pré la Lèbre (the hare in local dialect).
Further down, take a path that descends to the left until it joins the downhill ski run.
(5) Follow the ski runs to the right to descend back to the resort (S/E).
