Description
From boulder to boulder, on this beautiful rocky ridge, reach Mount Trelod summit : a perfect viewpoint over the highest peaks of the Bauges, the surrounding villages and valleys of the massif.
Starting point : Garins hamlet
1/ Take the track (white and red markings, GR96) rising through the meadows, passing by two stone chalets (refuge).
2/ After 3 switchbacks, the track follows the mountain side towards Plane pass ("col du Plane"). Leave the track to follow a steep trail on the right.
3/ Higher up, turn left. You will reach the ridge, first in the forest and then between easy to climb boulders. From there, you will tower Doucy valley and its villages, at the foot of the imposing mount Trélod.
4/ After a first "false-summit" (1645m), follow the ridge up to the actual summit (1672m).
5/ Retrace your steps until the forestry road, then take the trail going down directly towards Garins refuge.
