Super Morzine Ridge Circular Loop

Car park: you can park in one of the underground car parks near the resort reception.
The starting point is the exit from the Plateau car park (photo), at the far end of the transfer area.

(S/E) First, take the Passage du Malinka to its end. There, you’ll see the ‘Domaine Nordique’ banner on your right, slightly below you, which you’ll pass under. A little further on, you’ll come to another identical banner. From this point, follow the ‘mixed trail’ for cross-country skiers, snowshoers, ski-joring enthusiasts, etc. Continue on to the altiport, which you’ll spot in the distance.

(1) Pass over the altiport and join the RD338.

(2) Cross the road and continue along the mixed-use path opposite, which offers magnificent views of the surrounding peaks, as well as the valleys lying to the north below your path.

(3) Pass the top station of the Séraussaix chairlift and head towards the top station of the Zore chairlift. You will then begin the descent along the Super Morzine ridge.

(4) Head down the mixed-terrain path on the left and follow it through three hairpin bends.

(5) Leave the wide, easy mixed-terrain path and start on the narrower track below the ridge. Follow this clear track to a junction (elevation 1696).

(6) The next section requires a bit of care; head south-southeast to join an unmarked summer path which initially runs beneath the high-voltage power line before veering left to descend north-east. After a final bend to the right and a walk of about 800 metres, you’ll reach the road—closed in winter—which leads to the Col de la Joux Verte from Les Lindarets.

(7) Turn right and follow this road uphill to the Col de la Joux Verte. Then join the D338 and turn right to return to the mixed-terrain path you took on the way up.

(2) Turn left and follow the entire outward route back to the car park (S/E).
