Le Canal de Pellafol - 12 km - Blue

Description

Enjoy the unique views of the surprising geological formations in this corner of Matheysine. A loop that will take you through the ups and downs...

The warm-up on the plateau will allow you to calmly tackle the short climb to the old canal.
From there, the smooth path will take you to La Posterle, where you'll quickly dive to the bottom of the gorge along a wide trail to cool off a bit.
After following the river, you'll steadily climb back through the forests planted there to slow erosion, then brush against the banks of Lake Sautet.

The steady climb will eventually bring you to the hamlet of Vieux Pellafol, nestled away from the wind and the crowds. From there, the plateau will unsurprisingly bring you back to the start.
