    Hiking

    There are beautiful sceneries, but due to a few very diffucult section this hike is not suitable to casual hikers.

    Contrary to what has been said, I do not find access to Balafrasse Point very complicated. A passage on the ridges requires a little concentration and will be unpleasant in case of dizziness but the path is completely conventional otherwise.

    The ridges are magnificent, a must do (unless you are prone to vertigo).
