Park near the Sévrier Town Hall square.
(S/E) Go back up the road towards Annecy (D1508) and turn left onto the road going uphill after 200 metres. Keep going on this road and pass the place called Létraz.
(1) Turn left to enter the woods. There are three paths leading to the crosses (Croix du Chuguet, Croix du Crêt), but we chose to take the third one, "Superpanorama de la Grande Jeanne".
The climb is steep for about 45 minutes, but the entire loop is in the woods, sheltered from the sun's rays.
(2) At a crossroads, turn left towards the south and continue to the Croix Chuguet.
(3) At the Croix du Chuguet, there is a superb panoramic view of Lake Annecy with the La Tournette massif in the background.
The path through the woods becomes easier as it runs along the mountain. There is a short steep descent to the Croix du Crêt (then climb back up to rejoin the original path).
(4) Continue along the easy, undulating path to the Croix du Chef Lieu (superb view).
(5) The descent via the chalet trail is very steep and can be dangerous in wet conditions.
(6) Join the D912 and follow it to the left until you reach a roundabout. Continue left on the D1508 to return to the town hall car park (S/E).
