Amenities

Guided steps

From the parking lot, take the small local road to Brésy.
1/ Near the Lys Blanc and the Chalet aux Bons Fromages, the small road gives way to a trail leading up to the Gron plateau, a magnificent, wild valley at the foot of Pic du Marcelly. You’ll leave the resort behind to explore vast, unspoiled natural landscapes.
2/ At Petit Planey, a short detour to the right to the Planey viewpoint overlooking the Montagnes du Giffre is well worth the stop.
3/ For the return trip, follow the quiet little road through Planey or take the alternate route via Le Pontet, returning via the end of the Voie Pavée.
