Description of the route
When you get to Lac du Joux, after about 2 km from Vens, a hamlet of the municipality of Saint-Nicolas, park the car in the adjacent square. Take route 29 that runs along the lakeside and rises to the right into the conifer woods. The trail rapidly gains altitude and crosses the alpine pastures of the south side of Pointe Aouillette, to reach the point on the watershed crest between the central valley and the valley of Vertosan.
