Charming walk made particularly beautiful by the fall conditions. Indeed, most of the trails are lined with streams (if not themselves their bed). This slippery and sometimes even acrobatic route, with the Charmille du Haut-Maret as its ultimate enchantment, has virtually no drop. In short, I'm conquered... 🙂 Thank you, Cédric!!!!

Autumnal freshness but pleasant weather for walking, airy and clear without wind, the pale sun pleasantly lights up the varied landscapes whose multiple greens shine all morning
