A serene alpine pasture walk to a mountain pass and a hill with tremendous views.
TOTAL DISTANCE: 10.2km
APPROXIMATE TIME: 2hr 30mins
START: Les Gournieis
FINISH: Les Gournieis
This walk sees the return of the hamlet of les Gourniers, though rather than a valley walk the Col de la Gardette is a mountain pass at the end of a pleasant - though in places steep - walk up hillside and through meadow. Navigation can be tricky in places, but the views at the top are tremendous.
