I'm sorry, but I didn't do that hike!
However, on 14 July, I did this one: Le Cirque du Fer à Cheval and Le Bout du Monde, but instead of Nambride, we started from the restaurant "Chalet du Fer à Cheval" located near what is called Chalets de Frenalay on the map.

Hiking in the rain, it's a bit slippery but the risky parts are equipped with handrails so the route can be done safely despite the weather
We shortened the route by taking the Griffe des Fonds river path, staying on the south bank. The path runs close to the river and quickly loops back to the start. In the end, it was a short 4 km loop that took an hour and ten minutes, with an elevation gain of 174 m

I wouldn't do this hike with children, as the path is narrow and runs along the edge of a drop. The climbs are steep. The view is worth it, but I'm not sure it's that easy.

Hello,
A beautiful route through the gorges, a short hike with a few technical sections. The ladder sections are easy, but caution is advised in wet weather and for those who are prone to vertigo.
Thanks to the author

A pleasant and easy short hike. The trail is not always clearly marked as it has had to be slightly altered due to numerous fallen branches.
The return journey is along very wide paths that are reasonably pleasant. The climb along the new Tine Gorges offers beautiful views.

A lovely family walk

The hike should be done in the direction described in the guide to climb up and not down the three ladders (which are almost stairs, not at all difficult, doable with children aged around 3-4 who are comfortable walking and climbing). This way, you will discover a beautiful view of Sixt Fer à Cheval. Much of the walk is in the shade. When you descend back to Sixt, the sun comes out and the walk through the hamlet is less pleasant.

Recommended for a warm-up or with young children.

A pleasant walk along woodland paths. At the end, you can see part of the gorges. Beware if you suffer from vertigo.
On the way back, we stopped near the Giffre to watch the rafts, canoes and kayaks go by 🙂
There were a few short stretches on country roads, which weren't quite as nice.
Nevertheless, we have fond memories of the trip, thank you!

Hello everyone, the trail has been open again since early August 2023. The trail is easy as long as you follow the signs. Enjoy your hike!

Sorry for this incident that my friends and I did not experience during this walk. However, the description mentions the following:
Warning: message from a hiker dated 18/09/2022: Part of the walk is closed by prefectural order due to the risk of falling trees.
Perhaps this order has since been withdrawn, which is why I am adding your comment to the description.
Have a nice day

The trail is damaged in several places due to tree cutting. We often had to take detours and it was difficult to find our way. But it was a good hike nonetheless

A beautiful, varied and uncrowded route. I took a group in an anti-clockwise direction, starting from the Pont des Tines and leaving a car at the Pont des Streams. The GR5 between these two bridges is closed due to fallen trees and is diverted more or less along the road, which isn't very pleasant.
Don't be put off by the length of the loop, as it includes many flat sections and a beautiful descent to the waterfalls.

Part of the walk is closed by prefectural order due to the risk of falling trees, which makes it much less interesting.
