A magnificent hike that takes you to the summit of Mont Joly, with an orientation table at the end to admire the surrounding peaks.
The Mont Joly hike is a round trip starting from the Baptieu parking lot.
You'll first pass through the hamlet of Le Baptieu, then La Colombaz, where you'll find an Auberge and restaurant. Take the opportunity to grab a bite to eat on the way down.
You will then begin the climb to reach the Tête de la Combaz at 2045m altitude. The rest of the hike is fairly gentle, as you follow the ridge to finally reach your goal, Mont Joly at 2525m.
From the summit, you'll have a 360° view, not only of Mont Blanc, but also of the villages of Megève and Les Contamines.
Whatever your hike, remember to pack cereal bars, plenty of water, sunglasses, sunscreen, a small first-aid kit, and clothing appropriate to the season and weather forecast.
