A lovely horse ride to explore the Plateau d'Ambel.
No particular difficulty; theGR® markings are very easy to follow.
A vast expanse of pastureland awaits at the summit, along with fantastic views all along the ridges.
Take care, however, in poor visibility (fog, rain), as there is a risk of not seeing the drop-off at the ridges and cliffs.
