This walk takes you to the top of a sunny little peak: the ideal spot for a picnic.
Possible access to the starting point with the free shuttles or on foot (from Courchevel 1850 by the itinerary).
From the Plan du Vah, find the start of the Sentier des Tufs, on the other side of the road. Walk on this trail for about 50m and turn left on a small path. This route goes uphill, with lots of turns, to the Gravelles ridge. It leads to a small chalet (private property), peak of the ascent.
Way back by the same itinerary.
Warning: the snow may be hard or icy, depending on conditions.
