Reach the finish point of stage 1: ‘Croix du Chêne’.
From Croix du Chêne to Pont de la Motte:
Follow the signs for ‘Pont de la Motte’: this is a downhill path that crosses the main road and then the local road as far as ‘Chez Bouvier’. From here, follow the route from stage 1 in the opposite direction as far as Pont de la Motte.
From Pont de la Motte to Cluses :
Follow the signs for Panorama du Chevran until you reach it: enjoy the view over the Arve valley. Then retrace your steps to reach the ‘Alpage de Chevran’ signpost. From here, start your final descent towards ‘Montoulivet (Cluses) par Le May (Ruine)’. You'll come to the same intersection as on the first day: join the Boulevard du Chevran and turn left. Cross the Chemin de Fer, take the Rue du 8 Mai, walk past the chocolate factory and you'll see the tourist office: the arrival point.
