From the charming hamlet of Chalmieu, take a step up on this moderately steep loop.
You'll discover the beautiful Aiguilles d'Arves, towering above the mountain pastures of the magnificent Montrond plateau. An ideal walk for young and old alike!
This loop offers a nice overview of the Montrond plateau, and makes you want to continue hiking higher up, from the TV relay. Situated above the hamlet of Chalmieu, it's ideal for a pleasant family outing in a wild and authentic setting.
