Hiking
We meet at 9am in Flumet, a charming medieval village nestling in the heart of the Val d'Arly. After introductions, we set off to begin our hike up the left bank of the Arrondine, past forest chalets and oratories that bear witness to our alpine past.
After lunch at the summit of Gâteau (1588 m), where the panorama opens up under the eye of Mont-Blanc, we continue to Signal du Sac (1683 m). The day culminates at Tête du Torraz (1930 m), offering breathtaking views of the Aravis range to the north and the stages ahead.
A short descent takes us to the Plan de l'Aar refuge, where a convivial evening awaits you after this fine first day.
The morning begins with a succession of summits: Tête de Christomet, Tête de Bonjournal, and Petit Croisse Baulet (2009 m). Each ascent offers ever more impressive panoramas. After the Col du Jaillet, we turn our backs on Mont Blanc to descend to the Ramadieu mountain pasture.
The afternoon continues in the undergrowth before we reach our hotel for the evening in La Giettaz, where Catherine and Guy will give us a warm welcome after this varied stage between peaks and valleys.
Today, we're off to explore the Stamochère mountain pastures and the Foiroux valley, with its mountain stream. After a steep climb, we reach the summit of Blanchet, with its breathtaking views. As we make our way along the legendary "Route de la Soif", we can take in sumptuous views of the surrounding mountains: Aravis, Beaufortain and Mont-Blanc.
The descent is along a narrow path to the village of Saint-Nicolas-la-Chapelle, where we spend the night in Marie and Alexis's Savoyard-style gîte, with its delicious cuisine based on fresh local produce.
On this fourth day, we cross the Arly to reach the Beaufortain side. The climb in the shade of the spruce trees takes us to Crest-Voland, before continuing on to Le Lachat (1591 m).
For the curious, the route can be extended through the Tourbière des Saisies Nature Reserve, a unique biotope. This optional extension allows you to explore the local biodiversity even further.
Evening and overnight at the Lachat refuge, a peaceful and authentic place.
When we woke up, Mont Blanc greeted us once again before a descent to the Nant Rouge. A climb to the Chard du Beurre (1893 m) then takes us to the Col de la Lézette and its lake. The panoramic ridge trail offers incredible views, with some notable stops including Mont Clocher (1976 m). A gentler day, but just as rich in magnificent scenery.
Evening and overnight at the Croix de Pierre refuge, facing Mont Blanc.
On this final stage, we climb Mont de Vorès (2067 m), also known as Tête des Trois Coins. The descent takes us along a panoramic ridge, past Ban Rouge and Roc des Evettes.
Each diversions is a final farewell to Mont Blanc and the unforgettable scenery of the Val d'Arly. We finish in style at Notre-Dame-de-Bellecombe, before reaching Flumet, the final stop on this memorable tour.
