The Bois de Chavot loop
The Bois de Chavot route is merely a pretext for a lovely route in the Belledonne massif. In this part of Belledonne, the chalets are numbered: the first chalet of this, the second chalet of that...This route is accessible for quite a long time during the season due to its moderate altitude of 1,860 m.The route is signposted, with a large section following theGRP®® “Tour du Pays d’Allevard”.
Combe and lakes of the Grande Valloire
A very pretty hike in the Belledonne massif. A forest to climb in the cool, mountain pastures offering unobstructed views of the surrounding area and very pretty lakes that reward the effort it takes to get there. Raspberries and blueberries along the way in season, which is a nice bonus!

From the Lodge de la Martinette to the Refuge de l’Oule via Lac du Léat

(Please note): This route is currently closed. See explanations here
(Comment from a hiker) dated 18 June 2023: small difficult section: crossing the scree slope where you need to use two ropes to reach the path in the forest.
The Lakes of Alpe d’Huez
A downhill hike through a rocky landscape where you hop from lake to lake – yes, it’s possible.
Of course, you’ll need to take the cable cars of the Alpe d’Huez–Vaujany ski area to reach the summit of the Dôme des Petites Rousses, the starting point of this hike.
