A circular route from Champagny-le-Haut has been made possible by the recent upgrading of a section of the path just below the Passage de la Frête. The latter is the highlight of the route, offering unobstructed views towards the Vanoise. This route can be walked in exactly the same way in the opposite direction, offering the same rewards. This also gives you the chance to buy some cheese at the Chalet d’Alpage du Lécheron on the way back.
