From Les Gets, take the Mont-Chery cable car to the start of the route. When you exit the cable car, turn right and take the wide path via the route du Mont Chery. At the hairpin bend, continue straight ahead through the forest until you find the route de Lassare on your left. Continue straight ahead through pastureland until you come to the next junction, which invites you to descend on your left through the forest to Plan Bôdit. The main difficulty begins as you tackle the climb to the Crêtes on your left. This is a very steep and demanding path where you will need to adapt your pace to the terrain. As you progress, the panorama unfolds before you reach the summit of Mont Chery. From here, the traverse along the ridges gives you a breathtaking view of the Mont Blanc range. Once you reach the Col de Lachat, switch to the downhill side (on your right). After a fairly technical descent through the forest, you join a more gentle path that takes you to the Mont Caly mountain pasture. After passing through this peaceful hamlet, you begin a long descent to Le Bouchet. Finally, a steep climb (but on a good path) takes you back to the finish station.
