Starting from the small downhill ski slopes of the Désert d'Entremont, this is a very accessible walk offering two beautiful views of the Chartreuse massif, both from the foot of Mont Outhéran and from Pointe de la Cochette, the latter being the most spectacular. The ascents and descents take place in the shade of the woods and forests, offering a beautiful panorama of the Chartreuse massif. Unbeatable value for money!

Snowshoe route on a sunny slope in the Entremont valley.
This route combines well-marked sections with others that are a little more open.
In winter, this route is normally done on snowshoes. This was a snowshoe outing, but given the lack of snow at the end of January 2014, the snowshoes remained attached to our rucksacks.

Departure from Saint-Pierre-d'Entremont (Savoie) (Savoie)
Starting from Saint-Pierre-d’Entremont, the climb to the summit of Roche Veyrand is steady and at times steep, with sections secured by cables where you’ll need to use your hands, but there are no technical difficulties or vertiginous sections. The rest of the route is a pleasant walk, mainly through woodland, which takes you all the way round Roche Veyrand via the Col de la Cluse, then down into the Corbel valley before climbing back up via the Pas de la Coche to return to the starting point. Given the nature of the ascent, this walk is not recommended for novice walkers (IBP = 97).
