A lovely hike with stunning views of Mont Blanc, the Mont Joly range and the Monts de Véry mountains, surrounded by alpine pastures.
From the centre of Megève, take the Route des Perchets (1,200 m) towards the Rochebrune cable car, leave the tarmac road and follow the footpath to the Hameau du Tour (1,315 m). Take the first path on the right that climbs through the woods towards the Alpette chairlift (1,864 m). The path climbs steeply to the right through the woods (very steep section until the plateau), allowing about 35 minutes.
Continue along the path towards the Chalet Lupo restaurant (1,858 m) and Alpage de Pré Rosset (1,888 m), then continue towards Cote 2000. Take the path that follows the ridge line, then take the path on the left, below the first ski lift, which descends above Alptiport and arrives near the paintball field. The descent takes about 1 hour 30 minutes.
The hike continues on the paved road from the Le Petit Lay restaurant (1,400 m) to the hamlet of Le Maz (1,310 m) and towards the village centre, with a walking time of approximately 1 hour 15 minutes. You can take the free Line 2 shuttle bus from the Le Petit Lait restaurant stop and descend to the village.
