ROUTE :
Gradual ascent through the woods to the village of Villard-Notre-Dame. Arriving at the village, the view is sublime over the aerial road to Villard-Notre-Dame, the perched village dominating the entire Romanche valley.
Once the visit to the village is over, the trail continues more openly to the next Villard: Villard-Reymond. The atmosphere is totally different, with this time a village set in a cirque and dominated by the majestic Grand Renaud. The valley is always visible from the village. Don't hesitate to stop in the little village of Villard-Reymond before the slightly steeper descent!
