The path up La Tournette was closed so we had to make a plan b 😓
Luckily we found a banger (thanks komoot 😉) up the other side of the mountains, which meant we could have a halfway beer up on Col de la Forclaz. Lovely jubbly 👌

Tough route but beautiful, too bad the views were obstructed by the clouds.
Note there are 2 points in the route where you have to pay attention we went wrong. In the end it turned out well.

September 5, 2023,Le Chalet de l'Aulp 🇫🇷

Beautiful mountain hike to a great alpine pasture that produces a multi-award-winning Reblochon cheese. Unfortunately, we weren't allowed to try it, of course it's closed when we come...😮‍💨 So it stayed with water and baguettes until we had a rescue panaché at the Col de We were able to get hold of Forclaz.😁
