Tour of Haute Pointe

On this pleasant walk, you will be exploring the lush-green mountainside pastures around this fantastic staggering peak.

Besides the green pastures of Chablais, this trail also offers a magnificent viewpoint over the Sommand Plateau, Mont-Blanc mountains and the other surrounding peaks.

From the lake, follow signs for the Col de Cordon. From the mountain pass, go down towards Les Charmettes and then up to Les Charmettes d’en Haut. Follow the path to the Col de Chavannais. Below Haute Pointe, this itinerary crosses over some steep slopes (rocky passage with cables to hold onto), to reach the Col de Chavan. From the mountain pass, it is possible to climb up to the peak of Haute Pointe (1,958m) in around twenty minutes. Carry on to the Chalets du Coin and then follow the farming track to the road, cross the road and then go along the road that leads to the Chalets de la Ramaz, and then the Lac de Sommand.
