From here, turn back uphill to climb through the fields (do not take the flat snowshoe path) to join the red trail called Abérieu. The last part of the trail takes the ridge towards the top station of the gondola lift.
Once you’ve made it to the top of the Foilleuse, take the ski slope back down to the centre of Morgins..
SIGNS
The trail is marked with yellow diamond-shaped signs (with a blue dot) up to the top of the Foilleuse.
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.
