La Dent d'Oche is accessible via various routes. This one starts from a place called "La Planche" above Novel. It passes through "les chalets de Neuteu", the Pavis pass, the portes d'Oche, the lac de la case, the planchamp pass, the dent d'Oche and returns via the Rebollion pass, the Neuve pass, the Neuva dessous, the enclos, and finally "la Planche".
This route allowed us to see many ibex in different places and the local flora.

Much less frequented than its famous neighbour, the Dent d'Oche, and 24 metres lower, the Roc du Château d'Oche offers no less of a majestic panorama, both of Lake Geneva and the Northern Alps. Up to the Chalets d'Oche, the route is the same as that for the Dent d'Oche, and from these chalets, the climb takes place in a wilder setting.

I suggest you follow a lovely route through the Chablais Massif, taking in the Dent d’Oche in particular. Almost all along the way, there are lovely views to enjoy (Lake Geneva, the Chablais, the Mont Blanc Massif, and more).Please note: there are challenging sections around the Dent d’Oche, involving a series of paths equipped with chains, including some exposed sections (see the description below).

This hike takes you around two iconic twin peaks in the Chablais region, the famous Dent d'Oche and its lesser-known neighbour, the Château d'Oche. The first part of the loop offers superb views of the impressive north faces of these two peaks. The second part, via the chalets of Oche and the Portes du même nom, opens onto the Bise nature reserve and the lakes of Darbon and Neuteu. The final descent takes place in the forest near the French-Swiss border.

A two-day trek with two long stages and significant elevation gain.

The return route takes you via Lac de la Cse d’Oche, Lac Fontaine and the Chalets d’Ubine. In summer, you’ll come across Abondance cows, goats and ibex.

After a climb through the forest to wake up our muscles, we leave the mountain pastures of the Bas-Chablais Pre-Alps behind us. The route runs alongside several lakes and offers panoramic views stretching from the Jura mountains to the Mont Blanc massif before plunging down below the Cornettes de Bise.
