Colonney circuit (n°3 Flaine)
Add to my favorites
The snowpack (snow plate) from the great valley at the foot of the Col de trè l'épaule is still present. It is possible to circumvent it. Do it for your own safety.

parcours

From Grandes Platières (viewpoint n°1), head towards “Refuge de Platé”. The path leads to the Col du Colonney via a succession of rocky projections and the deeply incised “Les Lapiaz” limestone plateaux. From this Col, follow the path that climbs steadily to the Tête des Lindars, then to the Tête du Colonney (viewpoint n°2). After having passed through a stretch of Les Lapiaz, scree and patches of snow, this path continues up a majestic ridge with views over La Combe de Monthieu, glacial cirques and the Reliques du Colonney to the north, Les Forts de Platé to the south, and the vast Assy plateau below. Retrace your steps for the return journey.
