From Euseigne, the route heads towards Hérémence. The trail then climbs to Mont Rouge via Thyon. A superb balcony trail takes you towards Lac des Dix, but before reaching it, you will cross the Col des Roux before reaching the lake shore and following it to its end. From there, the trail climbs towards Col de Riedmatten. There are superb views of the Cheilon glacier overlooked by Cabane des Dix. The descent after the pass is very steep at first, then levels out as you reach Arolla. The balcony trail connecting Evolène allows for a short break before heading towards Col des Bossons from Pas de Lona. The view is breathtaking! You will then take the Vallon de Réchy and the Pas de Lovégno to reach Saint Martin. You will then descend into the valley floor to cross ‘la Borgne’ and return to Euseigne.
