DEPARTURE FROM THE MAISON DE MORIOND
From the Courchevel Tourism offices in Courchevel Moriond, take the stairs down into Vieux Moriond (cross Rue du Marquis then the B-road leading to Courchevel 1850).
FROM VIEUX MORIOND TO LA CORBIERE
After the steep descent of the alleyway between the houses, cross the B-road and go straight on to join the path leading to the village of La Corbière through the snow-covered fields.
FROM LA CORBIERE
In the village, continue on down the path that leads into the forest. At the first hairpin bend, you will see the Silver Fir, a few metres further on, the oldest tree in the Saint Bon Courchevel forest. After returning to the path, continue downhill, past a second hairpin bend and then, in the straight section, turn left onto a little path. Follow the footpath around the hill as far as path intersection, then go down to the right. A few bends further on, you arrive on the Lake Rosière footpath (from here, you can link up with circuit n° 1 from Montcharvet).
TO THE VILLAGE OF LA JAIRAZ
Turn left and walk as far as the old saw mill (with the water mill).
END OF THE TRAIL AT LA JAIRAZ, THEN SAINT-BON
Along a level road, you will reach the typical Savoy hamlet of La Jairaz; the walk ends on the road leading to Saint Bon. Return by free Ski Bus
