Presentation

The route starts at the arrival of the Petit-Châtel chairlift, a little below on the right. You will start a gentle climb up to the Barbossine mountain pasture where you will turn left towards the forest on the summer path.
The second part evolves in the heart of the Barbossine forest in a very wild environment until the departure of the Chaux Longe ski lift.
For the third part, facing the Dents du Midi, you will walk along the ski lift and then cross the blue "Panoramic" trail to reach the Tour de Don aid station.
For your safety, be sure to follow the markers that go around the pulley of the ski lift.
The descent is then made by the red slope of Tour de Don and then by the red slope of the Écureuil.
At the bottom of the Écureuil, you can return to the village by taking the Petit-Châtel chairlift on the way down.
The last descent must be made before 4.30pm.
The departure point is at Petit-Châtel at the arrival of the Petit-Châtel chairlift.
You can get there either by free shuttle bus Line 2 (Barbossine stop) or by car, parking on site.
