Breathtaking passages and landscapes! Rope and chain handrails. Light climbing passages. Very dizzying. To be done in dry weather (no rain the day before or the day before).

November 4, 2024,Le Roc d'enfer en boucle depuis le parking du Foron

A committed hike to be done rather clockwise and not after rain. People prone to vertigo and unsure footing should refrain.
Otherwise, magnificent view and very cool scramble for those who like this kind of hike.
