Hiking
The summit which overlooks Fully and the Rhône plain. The access path from the path between Erie and Sorniot is quite steep (rated T4 according to the classification of the Swiss Alpine Club) and those prone to vertigo may refrain (not really empty, but the slope is steep and the view extends to the plain, more than 2000 meters below). From Le Fénestral, a solid mountain foot is required, as there is no official marked path and the route is not without danger.
