About
Trail Walking of 7.7 km to be discovered at Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, Upper Savoy, Châtel. This trail is proposed by GuyVachet.
Description
Boucle par les alpages de Betzalin et Covagnes au départ de Pré la Joux au coeur d'un site Natura 2000. Traverser la Dranse d'Abondance et monter via un sentier un peu raide (!) qui quitte à droite la piste forestière au bout de 200m. Prendre à gauche juste après Betzalin (photo 1) pour monter aux chalets de Covagnes et au-dessus couper le GR5 à 1725m. Redescendre avec rapidement les chalets de Lens en vue (photo 2) et à la cote 1622 prendre à gauche pour un petit raccourci (sentier peu marqué mais facile à suivre) qui retrouve le GR5 (prendre à gauche) et la descente se termine en lacets jusqu'au point de départ.
