Itinerary description

Tour starts at the cable car end station Jorasse. The cable car opens mid June but you can also walk up there from Ovronnaz.
The track is marked very well, so you don't really need a gps or a map, only if there's still snow and you can't see the red/white markings on the rocks. In mind June there was still snow in some parts, so better bring you'r higher walking shoes and walking sticks were helpful.

The tour is marked to take 3h, it took us 4h with lots of small brakes in the steep parts and a quick lunch break.
