Description :
Day 1 : we use the cable car to reach the starting point of our hike. The day begins with a balcony trail that takes us to the wild valley of Val de Réchy. We leave behind the hustle and bustle of everyday life and fully appreciate this protected area where nature blossoms. The slope then steepens as we begin the ascent of Mont Noble, the first summit of our weekend. From the summit, we enjoy a 360° view of the Rhône Valley and the Alps ridge. The second part of the day takes us back up the Val de Réchy before making a final effort to climb the pass that separates us from our mountain hut for the night, at 2982m.

Day 2 : the morning sun warms us up with its first rays as we begin the day by crossing over to the second pass of our route. The rocky atmosphere adds to the solemnity of the place, overlooking the imposing summit of Becs de Bosson. We then join a pleasant gentle slope trail that takes us back to the alpine pastures and up to the summit of our second objective, Roc d'Orzival. Our efforts are rewarded by the breathtaking view that unfolds before us. We then continue on a beautiful ridge path, suspended between sky and earth, which beautifully concludes these two days at high altitude before reaching the cable car that takes us back to Vercorin.
