When reaching "Le Pont de Gets" (8 Km from Taninges) turn left to "Praz de Lys" (6 Km). Cross the ski station and park near "Les Molliettes" in a quite obvious parking space.

In the URL http://excursiones.salicio.com you can find information on the outings.

It is convenient to emphasize some useful items: please do not forget to carry on (wear) raincoat, hat/cap and sun glasses, warm gloves, hiking boots or sport-footwear with thick and non-slipping sole, enough food and drinks for the own consumption. Spear dry clothes and after excursion confortable shoes are very convenient.

Have a lovely weekend! Cheers! Jose.
