Mount Morbié loop via the ridge

A gradual hike from Aillons-Margériaz 1000 resort to the top of the ski area, at 1543 m. At the summit, a magnificent panorama of the Bauges massif awaits you! The return trip over the ridge makes the fun last.

D/ Visitor center parking lot 1/ Follow the road heading north-east until the end. Turn right on a path rising through the meadows until you reach a track, then turn right again on this track.

The path follows a power line to Morbié (alt. 1250 m). 4/ From Morbié farm, climb to Col de la Sciaz (20') and then to Mount Pelat (natural park markings, 1h). Continue north along the ridge to Pré Condut. From there, a path descends on your left towards the Mont de la Vierge chalet. 5/ Once you've reached the chalets, continue down the path through the meadows to "Les Ginets". 6/ Return to the parking lot by the original route. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This itinerary takes you through mountain pastures. Herds may be present. Remember to close the gates behind you to prevent the animals from escaping. If you have a dog, keep it on a leash to avoid frightening the herd.
