    A nice walk with a very diversified landscape around the SouthWest side of the col du Marchairuz. Walked end of April 2017, after an untypically cold moment (thus the snow). Actual walking time around 5h.

    Jolie rando. Pas de vues spectaculaires mais des chemins variés et très souvent à l’ombre, idéal par fortes chaleurs.
