Tips and hints

Anyone following this walk would probably return to the foot of the chairlift station, but we made a deviation along an alternative path near the end of the descent, as this took us straight back to our hotel. The maps page reflects the route we walked, but it can easily be adapted to suit individual circumstances.

The best month for this walk is June, as the wild flowers meadows are spectacular
