The Jasseries peddler

Guidebook with maps/step-by-step

Step 1 : At the end of the parking lot on the way up to the pass, turn right after a pond, then immediately left onto a track which runs alongside the road (1st break). Go straight up and the track turns right. At the next two crow’s feet, take the right-hand path. At the edge of the beech grove, take the path down to the left. At the intersection, take the left-hand track down to the Supeyres jasseries (2nd break). Continue on this track.

Step 2 : At the 3rd break, the track climbs towards another jasserie. Follow the track to the renovated jasserie. Pass a pond on the right and take a grassy path leading to a new jasserie. Turn right just 20 m before it. Take a larger track to the left, leaving it 100 m ahead, and turn right onto a grassy path. It leads to a spruce wood.

Step 3 : At the Pialoux milestone, follow the edge of the spruce wood, then cut a good track. 200 m after the 4th break, go down the grassy track on the left. At the confluence of the waters, take a path on the left, before finding a more marked path on the right. It curves around a bend and skirts the Balayoux wood, then gradually moves away from it. You’ll find the 5th break.

Step 4 : At the intersection, turn right onto a track. At the second bend, go straight ahead on the grassy path (6th break). Descend to the right at the jasserie. Cross a stream and stay on the sunken track : you’ll pass behind another jasserie. Go left up to the Grand Genevrier jasseries. Cross the hamlet and reach the 7th break.
