IGN cards
Description
Starting from the Relais TV parking lot, take a walk through the alpine pastures of the Plateau de Montrond, frequented by cows and marmots. At the end of the climb, you'll be glad to reach the Croix Aigu to enjoy the view.
This intermediate-level hike takes you to a small summit on the magnificent Plateau de Montrond. The itinerary is wild and accessible to a wide range of hikers. All along the way, you'll have a magnificent view of the Aiguilles d'Arves. There are three of them: Aiguille Septentrionale, Aiguille Centrale and Aiguille Méridionale on the right. And don't forget to keep your eyes peeled for marmots.
