Trail Reviews
Wonderful tour with a view of the "Plateau du Trient". The chairlift from Champex-Lac was unfortunately no longer in operation, so we had to use our legs again. But there was not a soul around. From the Cabane d'Orny onwards the snow came. From here I would also recommend spikes and poles, as the traces of the events had partly turned into black ice. The November sun was also no longer able to melt the snow. The exertions of the climb are then rewarded with an indescribable panorama of the "Plateau du Trient". Even the camera's AI cannot possibly do this experience justice.
