Departure from La Giettaz (Savoie)
A beautiful loop to a little-known peak between Aravis and Beaufortain, particularly scenic. The climb is steep but the return loop via the little Croisse Baulet is enchanting, like a balcony with exceptional views of the Mont Blanc massif. It can get a little crowded on the way back as it can be reached in an hour from the Jaillet cable car.

This is a pleasant hike that allows you to discover the Pététry mountain pastures and a beautiful panorama of Mont Blanc. At the beginning, you walk along a stream and through the undergrowth. The steepest climb is in the shade of the trees, in the valleys, where you may see cows and, with a little luck, marmots.
