Level of difficulty: Intermediate
Elevation gain: 400 m
Distance: 5 km
Duration:
2h30
00:00: Go past Aiguilles Tourist Office, then down to the right.
At the stop sign, go straight on, across the bridge, then follow the vehicle track straight ahead. After 300 metres, turn left then right immediately afterwards.
You now have 15 minutes to chat on this easy track.
00:30: At the first hairpin bend, continue straight on along the path above the Peynin torrent. Cross the river to follow the opposite bank, upstream to the ford which marks the end of the vehicle track. (If you reach a forestry cabin you've gone to far!)
01:00: Cross the ford and follow the track to Peynin hamlet.
01:30: Just past the last house, turn left onto a path that enters a small forest of aspen. This crosses the track at an oratory and continues downhill to the start of the track you took on the outward trip.
02:00: You already know your way back!
