ITINERARY
This walk starts at the last parking lot in the resort.
Take the Piégut forest footpath to the right of the parking lot entrance. You'll enter a large spruce forest. The trail gradually climbs up to the summit of Piégut. Once at the summit, continue for about 500 m to the junction with the footpath leading to Les Sûres.
From here, turn around and return to the resort via the same route. It's also possible to make a loop by taking the Epicéas trail, shared by skiers and hikers (see "Piégut Boucle" itinerary).
