A steep climb to Caux, then a leisurely walk to Le Planellet. Repeatedly, views of the mountains open up, including the Dents du Midi. The second half begins with a descent in the forest. Below, a change of scenery: exposed passages, partly secured with chains, lead up to the Col de Taney. The hamlet of the same name with its lake is also located there.
