Departure from Montriond (Haute-Savoie)
This easy hike is ideal for a relaxing outing in the mountains. From the shaded path leading to Les Brochaux to the magnificent panoramic views from the Mossettes chairlift, the route alternates between cool forests and breathtaking views. As you descend towards Lac Vert, the majestic Dents du Midi mountains reveal themselves in all their splendour, inviting you to enjoy a sunny picnic by the water's edge. The rest of the walk is just as gentle, following a panoramic path facing the Roc d'Enfer, with the added bonus of peaceful cows dotting the alpine landscape.
N.B. The distance and, above all, the elevation gain shown are overestimated as they include a chairlift ride. For walking, allow for around 8 km of horizontal distance, 100 m of elevation gain and 750 m of elevation loss.

Departure from Champéry (Valais)
Hike starting from Croix du Culet, accessible by cable car. The signposting is particularly good at each intersection. Head towards Pas de Chavanette, then Lapisa, La Pierre, La Poya and climb up to the Col de Cou hut for a magnificent view. Then descend towards Croix d'Incrène via Arête de Berroi (truly magnificent, the most beautiful part of the circuit) and then towards the Barme refuge. Descend towards Champery. This is the least attractive part of the route, but it is difficult to avoid this road.

Departure from Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval (Haute-Savoie)
Straddling the French-Swiss border, between Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval and Champéry, this marked trail takes you between alpine pastures and high mountains.
