Description
At the heart of the village, take a left after the Grand-Nant de Nâves Bridge. Go through the typical Savoie houses and the trail begins 100m further on.
This first section is steep: 636m “positive” in the first 5km. The trail goes clockwise and follows the Grand-Nant upstream.
The highest point (1960m) is not far from the Nant du Beurre refuge, where you can spend a night.
On your way down, admire the crest lines of the Nâves cirque, including an emblematic peak for ski hikers, the Quermoz (2297m).
1.25km from the finishing point, you’ll pass by the Tovet chalet (1560m) which is the gateway to the Nordic skiing slopes in winter where you can also freshen up in the “bachal” (basin in Savoie dialect).
Take care on the last kilometre, it’s steep and technical.
