This hike takes you through part of the cross-country skiing area, so popular during the winter season. The world's top biathletes challenge each other on this site all year round... but now, enough daydreaming! *Get motivated and go find the abundant Avérole torrent: as the locals would say "abadez-vous"! The left bank will guide you on a brief adventure into the valley of the same name. At a bend in the road, you come across the beautifully restored hamlet of La Goulaz where the past seems to come back to life. What a surprise in the distance! What's the majestic glacier that just appeared? Her Majesty, the Charbonnel, silently reigns over the land, peaking at 3,752 metres. A mere glimpse leaves you breathless as you venture further on this occasionally uneven slope. In spring, the larch dresses up in shades of intense pink: a jaw-dropping sight! Their new cones bloom in record time, as this evergreen is the only species that entirely renews itself every year. In the summer, they've got a colossal task on their hands!
