"Along the water's edge"
The path is mainly in the forest, following the small, almost flat canal. it is shady and runs alongside the water, so you will enjoy the coolness in the summer and the stunning scenery in the winter.
The last part of the trail is through meadows in the sun, passing the Traitaz mountain chalets and offering lovely views of the valley. You can stop for a picnic at "Les Avinières". From there, a 20 minute walk will take you back to the car park and Prachanié refreshment bar.
