This short family hike will take you to the first alpine pastures and the charming hamlet of Clos Raffin, now completely renovated.
From the starting point at Le Chazelet (1770 m), at the parking lot at the foot of the village, descend towards the village along the parking lot. At the first fork in the road, do not go up into the village, but take a right-hand hairpin turn towards the foot of the ski lifts.
At the second junction, keep to the side of the road (do not descend towards the torrent).
Continue along the wide track and at the next junction, turn left, crossing the torrent at the "pont de la mine" (old silver-lead mine).
Climb up the wide winding road before reaching the butte du Querellé (in Cadelet dialect).
Take a sharp left, pass the Querellé alpine hut and climb up to the hamlet of Clos Raffin (1830m): magnificent view of the three hamlets of Les Rivets and Le Chazelet.
On leaving the hamlet, take the path leading to the bridge at the start of the ski lifts. Join Le Chazelet on a wide track.
