Around Lac des Corbeaux and Croix Louis

Oh dear, this trail is one of the easiest I've ever described. Given the large number of hikers who use this route, the trail is easy to find, even without a description.
Thanks for the feedback.

The route was not easy to follow. The difficulty level was much higher than that specified on the website.

Not at all, you are entirely free to give your opinion, even if it's negative. I just don't quite understand why my description is rated very disappointing.
I would, however, add your comment about not venturing out if it's freezing.

You're asked to give your opinion.
But as I understand it, you only have to give it if it's positive.

Hello
It's a shame to see the author penalised by a poor rating for a problem with the weather.

A hike not to be undertaken in winter.
Impassable and trapped by icy conditions.

It's a lovely walk, but not for everyone. One person in our group lacked confidence and preferred to turn back from the Roche du Lac. In addition, the WPT 3 does not correspond on the map to the signposted path that runs from the Anneau Jaune to the Croix Rouge. As a result, we got a bit sidetracked between the 2 paths before going to Croix Louis...
Given the distance and the difference in altitude, it's an easy walk. The warnings at the start and along the way about technical sections should be enough to make novice hikers pay attention and possibly give up. This could also be noted in the introduction to the description.

at the point the path marked out to view the rock, we did not find
and we turned back

A beautiful, well-shaded trail. A few minor difficulties for beginners, but a great experience for future hikers. You do need to be careful with somewhat boisterous children, as several sections require parents' full attention.
Personally, I completed this circuit with the tour of the lake (1.500km ascent = 0), which was super relaxing.
If you want a bit of peace and quiet, avoid Sundays and public holidays.

Only happiness in this walk of +- 5klm, we passed by all the emotions by the beauty of this nature, this sight, mixture of rocks of moss, normal difficulty by place a more pointed but very accessible, attention to hold the children close to you

A very pretty walk, with many changes of style (pebbles, forest track, peat) that provided a guaranteed change of scenery. Early start, not many people. A climb at the start, then a flat section overlooking the lake, then a final descent. We recommend this pleasant hike, with a few difficult sections (handrail and path overhanging a cliff, for example) to spice things up. The view from the rock at the lake is simply breathtaking.

Lovely walk with a magnificent view over the lake. Not necessarily suitable for the very young as the path is relatively steep and slippery in wet weather. You'll need good footwear...

Thank you Franck and Sébastien for this very nice feedback from the field, which sums up this pleasant little hike very well.
I wish you all the best with Visorando 👍.

A great mini-rando! A magical place, some fun obstacles, a great climb, some slightly tricky descents (without going overboard), some magnificent viewpoints, a finishing point with the reward of a dip in a superb green/blue lake full of trout... in short, a lot of fun. :-)

As far as the terrain is concerned, it's a bit of a challenge if you're just a Sunday walker or hiker (like us haha ) but there's nothing to be afraid of either. Unless you've got bad feet, bad balance or bad shoes. There's no need for walking sticks or 'big' grolles: very good trainers are all you need in dry weather. But don't go with city trainers, you'll regret it!

For a real hiker, it's easy (especially as it's not very long!), for average hikers like us, it's moderately difficult without more, and for simple walkers, it's a rather arduous trip (but they'll be put off straight away by the effort required haha).

On the other hand, if you're taking children with you, you'll find it a bit tricky. There is a real risk of falling at certain points, and on the descent there are a few gravel/pebble beds on which it's easy to slip.

We loved this magical little hike, and we'll be going back as soon as possible.

The route is described as "easy". This is not the case, as some of the sections are steep with large stones. The correct description would be "medium difficulty".
