From Chambéry, head towards Col du Frêne, then follow the D911 (north). Look out for thefirst roadon the left (a forest track suitable for vehicles) just before Routhennes (altitude 903). Follow it to the end and you will arrive at a beautiful platform where it is easy to park.
(S/E) Take the path (south-southwest) that starts at the end of the platform. If there are cows in the fields, there is a fence with a passage for hikers. The path starts as a nice steep track for agricultural machinery, then quickly becomes a trail in the meadow bordered by forest on the left and right. The trail then winds through the forest. You will soon come to the track from Routhennes; follow it to the left.
(1) Quickly locate a path that branches off to the left (altitude 1,000 m) and follow it until you exit the woods. You will arrive at a large, fairly flat meadow. Head northwest to a place called La Cornue (renovated shed).
(2) Take the path behind the house. Follow it, then after a few bends, leave the woods and discover the beautiful Pré Pignon pasture. Continue to follow the trail to reach a beautiful shoulder.
(3) Follow this ridge to the right (north-northwest) along a well-marked, easy trail, first through pastureland and then through forest, which leads to the summit of Mont Morbier.
(4) Enjoy a beautiful 360° view, closing your eyes to the arrival station of the Mont Pelat chairlift. Cross the summit and then descend into the mountain pasture where, below, you can clearly see the path that you take on the ridge (altitude 1509).
(5) Turn right and follow this path to a fork (elevation 1404).
(6) Follow the path to the right, heading south, which further down becomes a good forest track that you follow at a leisurely pace. After Les Ordons, start a series of hairpin bends and ignore all the paths on either side to find the ascent route.
(1) Continue to the left, then turn right to arrive directly at the car park (S/E).
