When arriving in Monêtier from the south, take the Chemin des Preynas (opposite the post office and the "Jardin d'Écrins" shop). Continue along this street for a few hundred metres until you find a car park on your left.
(S/E) From the car park, take the path (not shown on IGN maps) that continues on from the street (Chemin des Preynas).
(1) Turn right onto the path leading up to the balcony.
(2) Turn right towards Puy Jaumar and ignore the path on the left, which will be the return route.
(3) Turn right onto the main path.
(4) Leave the path and continue south-east across the fields, along the cliffs where mouflons like to bask in the sun.
(5) Reach the chapel of Puy Jaumar and climb to the right, towards Puy du Cros.
(6) Turn right after the shepherd's hut, towards the hamlet of Puy du Cros. Stay on the main path, ignoring the numerous tracks that cross it here and there, and walk along the Cime des Conchiers, which is at your feet.
(7) Leave the path leading to Puy Chevalier on your right and continue along the path descending to the left.
(8) Follow the path on the left, known as the "Circular des Conchiers", which is a snowshoe trail, and rejoin the route you took on the way up.
(2) Take the path back downhill to return to the car park on Chemin des Peynas (S/E).
