TECHNICAL INFORMATION: Departure: St-Christophe-en-Oisans Height difference: 838 m Round trip time: 3h Distance: 9.2 km Level: difficult ROUTE : Start from St-Christophe-en-Oisans (1460 m) next to the cemetery. Climb through the hamlet of Roure towards the hamlet of Le Puy (1h/350 m ascent). You'll pass the old Moulin du Diable, then the Vierge du Collet. Turn right along the path towards Miroir des Fétoules to cross the hamlet of Le Puy. This well-maintained hamlet is well worth a look. Follow the path towards Plan du Lac / Les 2 Alpes. Leave the path leading down to Plan du Lac and follow "les 2 Alpes / les Perrons". The path becomes very aerial with rock passages and handrails. From Les Perrons descend to the 2 Alpes resort. IMPORTANT: Return to the village of Venosc by footpath or gondola. In summer, you can take the bus to St-Christophe-en-Oisans, or return via the Venosc - Plan du Lac - le Puy - St Christophe trail. Caution: not recommended in wet weather.
