The little road that goes down from Cholonge is great and on arrival you have a superb view of Lake Lafrey

I did it on gravel, climbing via the Aveillans hill (west), it was fine. Direct descent to Putteville, very limited at the beginning on gravel, much steeper but it was fine.

1st part very smooth and very pleasant, 2nd part much more technical with a nice climb on a very greasy muddy path, steep slopes and quite technical descents. The final does not take the greenway recently set up and which allows you to avoid the road.

From here you can enjoy a breathtaking view of Lake Laffrey and Lake Mort. Both have magnificent turquoise colored water!

Along this path, you alternate between wooded corridors and open balconies. Here, precisely, you can admire the turquoise waters of Lake Petichet. A real call to swim. If you go back down, the lake is not that far.
