La Pointe de la Vélière

0/ Upper station of the gondola (alt. 1970m)
At the top of the gondola, take the road that goes up to the right, passing near the arrival of the ski lift, then the departure of the Rossa chairlift.

1/ It continues to cross; at the level of the "Roc des Blanchets" high altitude restaurant (closed in summer), take the track on the right which leads to the paragliding take-off.
Still crossing this track, pass under the rocks of Les Arriérés to enter the Combe of the same name.
The track climbs, still climbing, and takes you to the Ruines du Tougne (Alt 2138m).

2/ From here, leave the track on the left, to go up the grassy slope following the path: in 40min reach the summit decorated with a cross.
Magnificent view at 360°C; very aerial.
Descent: by the same route.

Variant descent:
Difference in altitude: 67m
Highest point: 2534m
Walking time: 1h30

3/ A path following the ridge line leads to the Col de la Bauche de Mio. Beautiful aerial path on the ridge (be careful); return via the Combe des Arriérés and the Ruines du Tougne.
Estimated additional time: about 1h30.
