Description

The Gron pastures overlook Praz de Lys plateau, with a superb view of Mont-Blanc and the Chablais mountains.

Guided steps

From the car park, take the small Route de Brésy. When you reach the Lys Blanc and the Chalet aux Bons Fromages, the small road leads onto a footpath up to Gron plateau, a magnificent wild valley at the foot of the Pic du Marcelly. We leave the resort behind us, for natural and wild wide-open spaces. When you reach Petit Planey, there’s a worthwhile short detour to the right leading to the Planey viewpoint overlooking the Giffre Mountains. For the way back, follow a small, quiet road via Planey or an alternative via Pontet, where you'll end up on the stone path at the end.
