Croix de Tête Noire - hiking trail

Nice hike on the heights of Cordon, with a magnificent view of the Mont-Blanc massif and the Aravis mountain range.

A hike that promises an escape into the heart of nature, with breathtaking panoramas of the Aravis and Mont-Blanc ranges. Accessible from the Le Peray parking lot, this red-level itinerary is designed for experienced hikers.

The climb is mostly through undergrowth: as you progress, you'll be rewarded with breathtaking views of the Aravis chain, including Pointe Percée and the Quatres Têtes. Once at the summit, the landscape opens up to breathtaking panoramic views.

As well as being a feast for the eyes, this mountain hike also allows you to bring along your four-legged friends, as pets are welcome here, on a leash of course. Enjoy this hike to the full, while respecting the tranquility of the forest and mountain pastures.
