Welcome to the Champagny le Haut Orienteering Course for walkers and snowshoers!
Choose the blue route, and with the orientation map, find the markers in the order suggested.
An itinerary accessible to all.
As you make your way along the valley floor, you'll be able to appreciate the different views of the hamlets and glaciers at the bottom of the valley.
Using the legend and symbols on the map, orient yourself and find your position, as well as the route you need to take to find the markers in the order suggested.
The starting point is represented by a triangle (Chalet Nordique de ski de fond) and each marker by a circle with its number. At the center of each circle is a characteristic feature of the terrain (intersection, corner fence, tree...) on which the beacon is located. Sometimes you have to go off-trail a bit to find the beacon.
On each beacon, the code number will enable you to check your location. Punch your map in the corresponding box.
When you've finished, come and check your punches at the Tourist Office and win some goodies!
Course color does not indicate difficulty.
