Description
Hike with views and balconies, before heading for the alpine pastures where cows and sheep graze: the Cabane du Petit Pâtre.
Discover the Petit Pâtre hut: from the forest trail starting from Le Peray, to the panoramic path on the ridge linking Croisse Baulet to Tête Noire, enjoy a varied hiking trail.
This hut is not only a traditional shepherd's hut, but also an essential stopping-off point for hikers in search of breathtaking panoramas. Picnic tables allow you to enjoy a well-deserved moment of relaxation.
The breathtaking view of the Mont-Blanc range is a spectacular sight. This exhilarating trail takes you through remarkable landscapes, while respecting the pastoral environment that characterizes our region.
Can be done as a loop. Caution: dangerous passage at Les Seyttets (sheep and patous park), but passage possible. Second itinerary/loop recommended by Tête du Planet.
