The Col de Joux is a picturesque pass connecting the Ayas Valley to the central valley. The gradients to reach it, both from Saint-Vincent and from Brusson, are always manageable, but never negligible. The word Joux likely derives from a pre-Latin term meaning wooded hill. Others, however, maintain a Latin connection to the word Jugum, meaning yoke, and hence hill.

Old huts on the way up.

Col de Joux, located at 1,640 meters above sea level, is a wooded pass connecting Saint-Vincent to the municipality of Brusson. The trails leading here are simple and non-technical, offering panoramic views on the Saint-Vincent side and passages through the woods on the Brusson side. The Ru Courthoud trail also begins here.
