Guidebook with maps/step-by-step

Take the stony path that descends beneath the chairlift, turning left as you exit the lift. It leads to the Col de Châtillon. Descend the trail on the right towards La Côte. After the cables of a ski lift, ignore a path on the right leading to Les Languières. Continue straight ahead to reach the coolness of a spruce forest and then the top of the gondola lift.
