Presentation

An easy walk from the village that can be done round trip. No parking at the start of the path. Parking in the village: cheese dairy. Very nice view from Cernay over the Aillons valley and the Colombier.

The starting point is at the South exit of the village on the road to the Col des Prés. At the height of the sign marked “Mas Dessous”, turn left towards: “Le Cernay 1 hr".
Follow the summer route or climb through the fields (in winter only) over a wide, slightly sloping stretch that is completely clear for at least 20'. At the snowshoe signpost, follow the direction indicated by going up over the road, which you will join again a little further on, having already skirted the first hairpin bend.
Then you just have to follow this road that winds between the fir trees. At the end of the journey, the forest is sparser and you arrive at a flat area with the signpost: Le Cernay.
You can return by the same route. When you come out of the forest, the long straight path across the meadows will take you back to your starting point.

Opening

From 18/12 to 30/04.
