Hiking
On an excellently marked path with an almost flat stretch, you first reach a magnificent viewpoint over the Cogne valley and Valnontey. From here, the climb, which has been easy so far, continues to the Montseuc ridge, with a much steeper and more strenuous route, but always well protected by wooden fences in the most exposed parts of the ridge. Along the way there are numerous information boards about the flora and fauna of the mountains.
At the top of the Montseuc mountain, there is the summit cross, a metal cross.

Below the cross, in a pile of stones, there is a metal box with the "summit book". Easy to miss! Only the flap of the metal box is visible.
