Summit in the forest, ideal for taking a break

Very beautiful 360° view with the added bonus of Mont Blanc when the weather permits

In my opinion, this is a terrible road for a road bike. I don't enjoy cycling back, but the "view" from my perspective isn't worth the ride, as most of it is trees and you only get a brief glimpse of the lake or the valley below, not to mention the Salève. The road is already very bad a few kilometers past Thoiry and only gets worse. I continued past the viewpoint, hoping to eventually reach a decent paved section. However, that didn't happen until the descent to Crozet. Of course, this isn't a problem on a gravel bike or mountain bike. I was glad I didn't get a flat tire.

Nice place to stay. Huttewaard Frank is very friendly and lovingly prepares a 4-course dinner and breakfast for you.

The Grand Crêt, at an altitude of 1,702 m, offers a magnificent view of the entire Alps, dominated by Mont Blanc. With a good pair of binoculars, in good weather, and unless I'm mistaken, the Matterhorn (4,478 m) in Switzerland is visible!

Fantastic view - fantastic path. I was there for the first time in October 1976.

Perched at an altitude of 1,323 metres, the Col de la Faucille welcomes you with a 360-degree panorama of the Alps and the Valserine Valley. Whether you attack it from the north or the south, the spectacle is not long in coming. Its ascent from the south, on the road to Gex, has the appearance of a great Alpine pass with its many bends and countless views of the Mont-Blanc massif.

attention ! only the return trip by the same path is possible between Petit Montrond and Grand Montrond from June 1 to September 30. the loop passing through private mountain pastures is closed between these dates. no particular difficulty except for a few rocky passages and a slight difference in altitude. a pair of shoes with a stiff, grippy sole can help, but it's also doable in sneakers, as long as you're used to mountain paths.
