Description
A walk through a beautiful larch forest before setting off up the steep and rocky slopes of Rochecline. A vast panoramic view from the summit.
From the hamlet of Villars bas, continue on foot on the track which ends at the hut at Herbe Blanche, a few hundred metres after the gate. Take the path which heads to the right. You will continue through a beautiful larch forest.Then the trees thin out, the slope steepens and the path climbs in zigzags before coming to a flatter section at the foot of the rocky peak of Rochecline.From this flatter section, the view over the southern face and the Tronchon ravine reveals itself; to the north, the black surface of the slope is rent with deep ravines. From here, follow the rocky spine up to the face of Roche Cline.At the foot of the latter, continue up the north face in order to go round it; shortly afterwards, a steep slope of fine scree secured by tufts of grass provides access to the summit, which is adorned with a cross made of larch wood.Follow the same route on the return journey.
