This hike starts near the village of La Chapelle-Saint-Maurice. Follow the road signposted Les Chalets du Sollier. Park at Le Coniet, in the bend, where there is plenty of space, rather than going to the end of the road (Le Créterny) where farm machinery could be in the way.
(S/E) From Le Coniet, follow the track for 20 minutes to reach the reservoir at Le Créterny.
(1) After the reservoir, take the path that climbs to the left towards the Sollier chalets.
(2) Be sure to turn left across the meadows to climb up and reach a wood. Follow the posts marked GRP®.
(3) At the crossroads, turn right (south). The path becomes more visible and, with several hairpin bends, leads to the Sollier chalets.
(4) Leave theGRP® here and turn left. Immediately, near the drinking trough, take the path on the right leading to Roc des Bœufs. It is best to take the path on the right, which is not well signposted. A little further up, small cairns indicate that you are on the right path.
(5) The path is now marked in green. Climb the switchbacks and reach the Roc des Bœufs ridge. Just before reaching the ridge, the green markings indicate that you should turn right.
(6) At this point, there are two ways to reach the ridge:
- by following the green markings on the right, which lead to the summit.
- by turning left to reach the ridge at a spot where a metal plaque has been erected in memory of a hiker. At the plaque, follow the ridge (where you will find the green markings) to reach the summit.
(7) Return via the same route to the car park where you started (S/E).
