Here is an invitation to discover the secret heart of the Massif des Cerces.
Between alpine pastures, mineral lines, high altitude lakes and alpine chalets, we will guide you to penetrate this wild terrain, mostly off-path, with exceptional viewpoints and probably with sightings of ibexes, large raptors, marmots...
We will evolve in the Haute Vallée de la Clarée, renowned for its beauty and authenticity.
This looped route is technically demanding with scree, breaks, steep slopes and possible névés at the beginning of the season. It will be physical with its 1000m positive and negative altitude difference and its distance of about 14 km.
This circuit is part of the " Wild Trekking Concept® ". https://www.facebook.com/wildtrekkingconcept : about.

People with a good experience of mountain hiking and with a regular physical activity.

>> INSURANCES
The mountain leader has an insurance covering their professional responsibility and rescue. We cannot substitute ourselves for the civil liability of each participant. Also, an individual accident liability insurance covering the practice of mountain sports without altitude limitation is recommended. In case of physical injury, the responsibility of the guide will be released as soon as the rescue services take charge. Any hospital follow-up (care, transfer, repatriation) will be the responsibility of the personal insurance of the accident victim.
>> TREATMENT
Do not forget to inform us briefly and privately, if you have a particular treatment and/or if you are medically monitored. This will allow us to give quick and reliable information to the mountain rescue doctor in case of an accident.
