On the Jaillet massif, the forest path that crosses the black grouse’s territory meets up with former pastures in the ridgeline and offers an exceptional viewpoint over the Aravis and Mont-Blanc massifs.
Follow signs for the Jaillet gondola and Luge 4 Saisons, then go right until you reach the Ball Trap parking lot.
Walk towards the Cabane des Frasses (1625), join the Tétras-Lyre trail on the west-bound connecting path, and at the first crossroads on the left follow signs for the Tétras-Lyre trail.
The Tétras-Lyre trail begins on a small path that rises quickly through the spruce forest to the Frasses hut (picnic tables, dry toilets).
The path then climbs to a junction leading to rhododendron and bilberry moorland. The path joins the ridge line and opens up to the panorama, before descending into the forest to the Ball Trap.
8 reading tables and 2 orientation tables adorn the trail, allowing you to discover richly varied natural environments and their wildlife
