Hint

Intro

When the Monts-Chevreuils ski area closed, the runs became fantastic winter trails. The Monts-Chevreuils hut at the top welcomes snowshoers for a well-deserved rest.

Description

This trail starts with a slight climb to “Les Coulayes”. This foretaste sets the tone for the trail, before a long climb up to the hut, along the old ski tow.

This route is very popular with ski enthusiasts because it offers a difference in height of 770 metres and a fantastic descent on days of powder snow. The scenery is magical with lots of little haylofts along the climb. On your way back, the plunging views of Les Moulins are breath-taking.

A few hundred metres below the summit, the Monts-Chevreuils hut welcomes hikers for a well-deserved rest. A meeting point for winter sports enthusiasts, it’s a popular place for sharing anecdotes and experiences. Return by the same route.

An enjoyable tour includes the careful planning of the same. Please inform yourself in advance at the local information center about the route and weather conditions. Depending on the season and weather conditions, this route may be blocked or interrupted
