Departure from Chignin (Savoie)
A short walk for an afternoon in the sunshine in the vineyard. The route described is largely based on a local circular loop called: The winegrower's year.
In addition to the directional signs, there are yellow markings and pictograms (a winegrower working in the vineyard).
The route is marked at intervals by seven information panels.

Departure from Chignin (Savoie)
From the Chignin vineyard, it takes a good two hours to reach the foot of the ladders that allow you to overcome the final obstacle. This structure was built in response to the threat posed by the Roc de Tormery to the village below. The view, already visible during the ascent, opens up as soon as you set foot on the ridge.
