Loop Hike Around Lake Bénit from the Village_Hiking

From the Mont-Saxonnex Tourist Office, head toward the restaurant Le Jaouve, then pass the bakery. Then turn right onto Rue du Crézano and head up to the hamlet of Le Liot. Directly in front of you, take the rocky path that gradually climbs; at the end of this path, you’ll arrive directly at the Bété parking lot. From there, follow the wide trail that climbs toward Lac Bénit. The trail winds its way up through the forest before running alongside the ski lift, from where you can see the two distinctive “eyes” of Petit Bargy directly in front of you. When you reach the *Pierre à Muselire* sign, head down the trail to the shore of Lac Bénit to enjoy the view. Then, head back up from the lake to the *Pierre à Muselire* sign and turn left toward Enténiou. Go around the cabin on the left to begin the descent toward Morsullaz. As you walk beneath the impressive cliffs of the Grand Bargy, you’ll reach the ski trail. Then turn right to enter the forest and return to the bottom of the chairlift at the Morsullaz parking lot. Follow the trail on your right that crosses the fields toward Les Côtes. When you reach Bété d’en Haut, continue on the path that branches off to the left. Just before the bridge, take the left-hand path that leads you to the Chèvrerie des Oulettes. Then follow the path downhill until it comes out onto Rue du Pont d’en Haut, and continue until you reach the main road. All you have to do is turn right to return to the Tourist Office.
