The Alpspitz circular route on the western slope
The Alpspitz is a small peak situated above Vaduz, which can be reached fairly easily from the car park next to the Clinicum Alpinum above Gaflei. The view from the summit is superb, taking in the surrounding mountains and the Rhine Valley. Do take care, however, as the circular descent via the suggested route is particularly exposed and vertiginous.
Circular Lauberhorn from Kleine Scheidegg
The Lauberhorn is a modest peak, yet legendary amongst downhill skiers, situated above Kleine Scheidegg. It offers a superb panorama of the Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen valleys, but above all of the majestic trio formed by the Eiger, the Mönch and the Jungfrau.

Kerlandic route to Pléhédel
This circular walk of around 7 km takes you on a journey through the Pléhédel countryside, amongst sunken lanes, copses and the typical hedgerow landscapes of Goëlo. Easy and accessible thanks to its gentle gradient, it offers a peaceful break in the heart of an unspoilt setting, dotted with hamlets, tree-lined embankments and sweeping views of the surrounding countryside. An ideal walk for discovering the charm of this little village.
Circular walk between Étang and Saint-Didier-sur-Arroux
This pleasant circular route, which is largely shaded and therefore ideal in summer, will take you through the Morvan countryside between Étang-sur-Arroux and Saint-Didier-sur-Arroux. No particular difficulties in dry weather. In wet weather, there is a potentially muddy section north of the Bois du Clou.
Uchon Rocks Circular Route
This route allows you to discover the beautiful rolling countryside around Uchon. Forests of beech, oak, chestnut and Douglas fir alternate with pastures and small ponds.

The route is mostly shaded, making it very pleasant on sunny days.
Pic Saint-Barthélémy as seen from the Monts d’Olmes resort
There are several ways to reach the Pic de Saint-Barthélémy. This seems to me to be the simplest. Starting from the Monts d’Olmes resort, which is easily accessible by car, you’ll first climb up to the Étang de Fage Belle, then on to the Col de Girabal, before finally reaching the summit where an exceptional view awaits you. The more adventurous can continue on to Soularac and back, which adds a total of 300 metres of elevation gain.
Pic de Valsenestre circular walk
This hike is reserved for very experienced walkers who enjoy adventurous terrain, steep slopes and new discoveries: the ‘orgues’, the panoramic view from the summit, the volcanic geology of La Rache and the Cabane de l’Oursière (from *The Hobbit*).

The magnificent view of the surrounding 3,000-metre peaks is a feast for the eyes, featuring Mont Viso, the Pain de Sucre and, on a clear day, Mont Blanc. The return route via the old copper mine adds an extra touch of history.
The Valley at Selongey
Gradually leave Selongey behind as you climb higher to discover the Venelle valley from a different perspective.
This circular route links Selongey to Foncegrive, alternating between country lanes, woodland paths and village crossings. After an initial section through the woods, the route reaches the heights of Foncegrive and its viewpoint. The walk then passes through the village before gaining altitude again via the paths and woods of Gency.
The return journey to Selongey offers one final change of scenery. The natural landscapes gradually give way to the urban and industrial heritage of a town closely linked to the history of SEB and the famous Cocotte-Minute.
Rocher de l’Yret seen from the top of the Bachas chairlift
Preliminary note: this challenging hike is recommended for experienced walkers.Warning: the final section, from the top of the Yret chairlift to the summit of the Rocher de l’Yret , is extremely tricky, as the slope is very steep and the rock slabs are slippery.

The Himalayan-style footbridge over the Semois
Let’s set off to discover the treasures and natural beauty of the Semois in its entirely wooded stretch between Sainte-Cécile and Herbeumont. As well as views of various meanders and the medieval castle of Herbeumont from the heights, the walk follows the river upstream for several kilometres before reaching the Himalayan-style footbridge, which was opened in early summer 2026. Although the route follows the left bank exclusively, crossing the Semois back and forth at height on the footbridge is an experience not to be missed (except for those prone to vertigo).
Circular route via Aghii Anargyri, Tourkoneri and Agalou Lakka
This 15 km circular route follows trails 5, 5A and 6. It is very well signposted. Park at the start, just in front of Milia Stadium. The first part of the route follows the coastline. The Aghii Anargyri monastery, 20 minutes from the beach, offers a magnificent view. Agalou Lakka is the last spot for a swim. The path then becomes very steep for 45 minutes. After the summit, be careful: there are no red markers, so do not take the first path signposted ‘Megali Amos’, but the second one, which branches off a little further on to the right. There is also a sign pointing to Megali Amos. After about 15–20 minutes, there is a fork in the path. Turn left to follow path 6, not 6A, which branches off to the right. You will then reach the summit.
Famelon Tower from Le Sépey
The Famelon Tower is the little sister of the more majestic towers of Aï and Mayen. Although about 200 m lower than its neighbours, it is nonetheless a beautiful, wilder summit, offering a lovely 360° panorama of the Vaud Pre-Alps, the Diablerets massif, the Dents du Midi and the Mont Blanc massif. Much of the route follows paths and small alpine roads, but the upper section of the route takes you along steep paths that should not be underestimated.

The walk can be done in either direction, but the descent towards Ferrières will be easier.

Between Trois-Monts and Goupillières
A lovely walk over hill and dale with stunning views of the surrounding countryside from high up, across fields and then along paths through the woods, in the shade and alongside the river. The view over the River Orne is magnificent and a real change of scenery.
