Getting to the starting point Report a problem

Step 1: Tourist office

From the Mijoux Tourist Office, exit on the right onto Rue Royale and walk down the road.

Step 2: Church of Mijoux

Cross the Charlemagne Bridge (snowshoes in hand). At the end of the bridge, turn left and head up towards Saint-Christophe Church, which is visible from the village.

Step 3: Sewing path

When you reach the church, put on your snowshoes. The trail starts on the right-hand side of the monument; continue along this path until you reach the crossroads with the road.

Step 4: Valserine Golf Course

Carefully cross the Route de Couture, then take the path of the same name. Follow this path towards the golf course.

Step 5: La Greffière

Just before the golf course, turn right. A small bridge allows you to cross the Valserine River and reach the other bank.
The return journey follows the Pellagrue cross-country ski trail through pleasant coniferous woodland until you reach the village of Mijoux from the west.
