Set out on a hike from Mont-Saxonnex to the Col de Solaison! Winding through the woods and alongside streams, this trail climbs toward the pass, offering spectacular views of the surrounding peaks.
Start at the Mont-Saxonnex Tourist Office for an active start to your hike through forests and alpine meadows.
After beginning along the road toward Brison, the trail heads into the countryside on a narrow, ascending path that opens onto a wide, vehicle-accessible trail.
As you climb, you’ll cross a stream over a wooden bridge before continuing along a stone path. By following the trail markers for the iconic local landmarks (Les Tours, La Corde, Le Châble, La Torche), you’ll steadily gain elevation until you reach the vast Solaison plateau. The hike ends on a high note with a traverse across the alpine pasture toward the cross-country ski center and the final ascent to the pass, where a splendid view opens up over the Rochers de Leschaux and the Pointe d’Andey.
