Easy
Departure from Arâches-la-Frasse (Haute-Savoie)
This is a very scenic linear walk from Flaine back down to Les Carroz. Lots of interest, from brutalist architecture to a water-worn torrent and the limestone cliffs encircling the Lac de Flaine, followed by forest paths and open meadows with grazing sheep. There are also opportunities to shade from the sun on hot days. The walk is well signposted and these are referenced in the description.
