'Abérieu' Red Trail / Rando-Parc Morgins

Sport, Skiing, Ski touring route in Morgins
3.7 km

  • The Abérieu trail, one of the loveliest, yet quietest tracks, climbs through a dense forest before opening up in the last section for a majestic panorama of the Dents du Midi.

  • The trail starts gently, following the wide track on your left towards Champarin. At the first crossroads, take the trail on your right towards le Madze. You'll head up a steep, narrow path through a magnificent forest.

    At the clearing, you will turn slightly to your right and head up a steep path to the top of Savolaire. At this point, you may want to stop and catch your breath before making the final push to the Crêtes ridge (summit of the Foilleuse/Truche).

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
    Please take note and follow these important safety instructions. At the start of each trail, a sign indicates whether it is open or not. If the trail is closed, this can indicate lack of snow or dangerous conditions. Taking a closed trail is at your own risk. Open or closed, the trails are marked but not patrolled. We strongly advise that you carry, and know how to use, avalanche safety equipment (avalanche transceiver, probe, shovel, and emergency blanket). Région Dents du Midi and Movement Skis decline all responsibility in case of an accident.
