Description of the route

This route could be interesting for those wishing to observe the cross-country skiers.

From Cogne, after the baby snow park, go up slightly to the left and then continue on the flat up to the cross, pass over the cross-country track and, two minutes later, the Buthier bridge. Turn right and descend on the orographic left of the Valnontey stream until you reach the village of Cretaz. After the Cretaz bridge, return to Cogne along the track just below the road. Here you cross the bridge and you go back to Cogne.

It is possible to walk this itinerary in both directions.

You will find a map outlininng the area snowshoe routes at the Cogne Tourist Office.
