A long, solitary escape west of Cogny
This day hike is intended for experienced walkers. Its appeal lies in the long kilometres of solitude, where hikers can find themselves while awakening their senses by listening to the various sounds of nature and enjoying the magnificent landscapes where the ridge line oscillates from "very high" to "walker's height".
This hike is difficult due to its length and elevation gain. In total, slopes greater than 7% stretch over 11 kilometres. In addition, orientation is complicated fromthe 11th tothe 13th kilometre as there are many crossroads. The psychological impact should not be overlooked, as you will almost always take the uphill paths at the crossroads. For this very difficult hike, be sure to take all the necessary precautions.
