Leave your car at the entrance to the village of Montchaboud in the small car park on the edge of the D5a.
(S/E) Continue uphill, cross the village following the hiking signs for "Haute Jarrie".
(1) At the crossroads, turn right to pass in front of the wash house, then immediately left. Ignore a path on the left, pass under the power line and continue straight ahead for about 400 m. The road then turns into a path and climbs slightly to reach a fork.
(2) Turn left, continuing to follow the hiking signs. The path runs alongside a field and then begins to descend into the forest. On the left, the view opens up through the trees onto the village of Haute Jarrie and the Château de Bon Repos.
(3) At the bottom of the descent, turn right onto a path that climbs fairly steeply for about 500 metres, then continues horizontally through the forest until you reach the hamlet of Mont Rolland.
(4) Once you reach the houses and the paved road (Chemin des Imberts), take a small path on the right that runs along a fence and climbs slightly until it joins a wider path coming from the left. Turn right to continue climbing on this good path. The view gradually opens up onto the surrounding mountains.
Ignore the first path that branches off to the left, then a second one on the right, and continue climbing through the meadows, where the slope becomes a little steeper.
(5) Leave the path that branches off to the left and continue straight ahead, climbing until you reach the summit of Bellevue and enjoy the panoramic view.
Please note that an orientation table has recently been installed by the Grenoble Metropolitan Area, as well as a passage between the fences.
(6) From the summit, the descent is on more or less well-marked paths, heading south then west.
Keeping to this course, the route continues along the edge of fields, some of which are cultivated, and passes not far from the high-voltage pylon on the left. Just after this, the path enters the forest again and joins the ascent route a little further down.
(2) Turn left to reach the wash house and follow the path in the opposite direction to return to the car park where you started (S/E).
