Description of the route
From the cable car departure station reach the second wooden bridge, turn left and take path 23 that descends towards Valnontey and, flanked by fir and larch trees, crosses the entire length of Sylvenoire plateau.
Along the walk there is a bar-restaurant, an alpine pasture and a fresh-water spring.
For flower lovers, the surrounding underwood contains examples of the very rare Linnea Borealis.
The path descends to Champlong hamlet and continues to Lillaz crossing Champlong Geosite : a huge landslide occurred during October 2000 flood that today represents an interesting geological area.
