At an altitude of 1,050 meters, the Col des Contrebandiers is a vast meadow that marks the intersection of several hiking trails. From there, it is possible to get to Mont Baron, Mont Baret and Veyrier-du-Lac in particular. There is also a parking lot.

When descending, watch out because of deep holes in the road surface
