From the Passy Plaine-Joux station, take a beautiful loop to the splendid Lac Vert, passing by heritage sites (former sanatoriums, architectural interest) and the remarkable Nant-Bordon Himalayan footbridge.
The route starts in the heart of the Passy Plaine-Joux resort. Head for the Barmus chairlift and Lac Gris, and continue along the track that runs alongside and overhangs the stream. At the end, cross the main road and turn right towards the Guébriant vacation resort. Go past the main building and at the end of the road, at another junction with the main road (bridge), turn right, then immediately left. Follow the path which climbs a little further to the right into the forest. After a short but steep climb, start your descent towards the Fontenay residence (left, then straight on). Follow the main road downhill for 150m, pass a stele (Roc des Fiz) and take the path which gradually rises to the left. Then descend to the right as far as the next junction. Turn left and follow the old Lac Vert road all the way up, passing the Himalayan footbridge. Walk counter-clockwise around the lake and back up to the resort along an undergrowth path. You pass the Cabanes du Mont-Blanc before returning to the mountain pastures and slopes of Passy Plaine-Joux.
