Bonhomme Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

High mountain trail, if taken downhill, it presents several technical passages in the first part.
Enjoy the descent safely and always respect the people walking along the trail.
During the descent I came across a beautiful group of ibex.

Fenêtre Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Via the Col du Joly, more pleasant to do on the climb which offers beautiful views, passages a little difficult but less than on the descent, on the other side the descent is done in a scree.
