Crepin Pond

Highlight • Lake

Nice slice of landscape.
Watch the tiny fences here around, that might be barely visible. From here a fast descend to Extrepieraz starts.

Ru Courtoud

Highlight • River

Place of the heart, the path along the Ru is really beautiful. Be careful: a downhill stretch must be done on foot and is not exactly easy. 15 minutes and more.

I never tire of doing it again, spectacular!
From Vollon to Saint Jacques you avoid the asphalt almost entirely, passing through splendid pine forests. Short stretch with a minimum of difficulty.
Here we take advantage of a bit of asphalt for the first part of the climb, followed by a comfortable dirt road.
Further on you begin to follow the …

It's been a couple of days that I feel like I'm pre-menstruating, nervous and a bit standoffish. Maybe it's the heat? I don't know...

Tour to do absolutely, and then redo ...
Putting your experiences together, it was planned so that the asphalt was kept to a minimum, the counterclockwise made the more difficult piece viable with patience.
A short stretch to cover with the walk uphill and a less short stretch, downhill, but really bad for my fees.
The ascent to the Gran …

The path along the Ru Courtod, with its 12 kilometers, is one of the longest paths along the typical water pipes in the Aosta Valley. The first section of the tour leads up to Corbet on the main road and from here always parallel to the road on gravel paths, single trails or side roads to Frachey. The route again …
