District:
In Taninges, take the D902 towards Les Gets.
At Fry, turn left onto the D328 which leads to the resort of Praz de Lys. Once at the resort, head towards Petit Planey - Grand Planey. The car park is located just before the Planey ski lift.
(S/E) The trail starts on the Planey ski slope, heads south-southeast and climbs to the La Banc viewpoint overlooking Taninges.
(1) Once at the viewpoint, retrace your steps and turn left onto the trail that heads north-west and alternates between undergrowth and ridges, but is not vertiginous, to reach Pointe de Mancelly. A magnificent panorama awaits you. You can find your bearings using the orientation table on site.
(2) For the descent, you must pass the end of the summit platform via the Pas de l'Âne, which is a tricky and vertiginous passage. The rest of the descent is first along the north-west ridge. Then you leave this ridge path, which leads to Pointe de la Couennasse, and take the one on the right.
(3) Descend into the valley and, at the altitude of 1643m on the IGN map, you will come to a crossroads.
(4) Turn right and continue along a flat section until you reach another intersection.
(5) Turn right to reach the car park (S/E).
