The Tournette circular loop starting from Montremont

Very difficult
Departure from Thônes (Haute-Savoie)
Starting from Montremont, I suggest you follow a lovely route on the Montagne de la Tournette, taking in numerous viewpoints: the ascent is via the Col de Frêtes de Rosairy, where you are unlikely to encounter many people, then the return via the classic route from the Chalet de l’Aulp – which can be quite busy – before reaching the Col des Nantets. The challenges lie in the elevation gain and distance, but above all in certain exposed sections requiring caution: ⚠️ Please take full note of the explanations and warnings in the ‘Practical Information’ section.

In the commune of Glières-Val-de-Borne, in the Bargy massif, Lac de Lessy is a true gem at the foot of the Pic de Jalouvre. The walk takes you through forests and mountain pastures. It features a short rocky section. The start from La Joux and the return via Montagne de Paradis and Cocogne are what make this walk unique. You pass the two-hundred-year-old hamlet of Les Chalets de Mayse. The Chalet de Lessy is nestled on the lakeside after the Col de la Forclaz.
