La Correrie car park.
(S/E) Take the tarmac road that climbs northwards towards the monastery.
(1) Leave the large entrance to the monastery on your right and continue along the road that passes in front of two buildings, the taller of which has a wooden shingle roof (wooden roofing). Continue along the dirt track after the tarmac road.
(2) Take the path going up to the right. The path becomes a trail before reaching Bourdoire.
(3) Return a few metres along a forest road, take the first path on the left and then the first on the right. Signpost for "La Correrie".
The path winds around before joining theGRP® Tour de Grande Chartreuse.
(4) Follow the yellow-red GRP® markings to the right. Narrow path, like a balcony, crossed by several streams on the right. Below the path, make a round trip to the viewpoint overlooking the monastery.
There is a beautiful view of the northern and western mountains.
(5) Continue to follow the yellow-red markings
(6) Please note that forestry tracks have been opened from this point onwards.
Some hikers have had serious problems on this hike, see review dated 02/06/2023, between (6) and (7) when following the wrong path. The route has been manually readjusted to try to resolve the problem.
Look out for theGRP® or Trail 4 markings (small white labels).
The path ascending to the left is only marked on its upper section.
Then, on the final descent, turn right twice onto the embankment created by the logging road.
The yellow-red markings are visible. The GPS track is random, with reception extremely disrupted by the forest and the orientation of the slope.
Return via the top of the Musée de la Correrie buildings to the car park (S/E).
