From La Fétiuère to the Chalets d’Oche

Several walks start from the La Fétiuère car park. Take the forest path uphill towards the Chalets d’Oche, which you reach about 2.1 km into the route. Leave the path to the Dent d’Oche refuge here and continue up the valley towards the Lac de la Case.

From the lake to the Pelluaz ridge

Beyond the lake the terrain changes at the Col de la Case d’Oche, around 3.5 km along the GPX track. The path then follows the ridge to the Pointe de Pelluaz, at roughly 4.7 km. You need a steady footing on this exposed section, especially when the rock is wet.

Back down the ski slopes

From the summit, descend on the other side of the ridge. The lifts and the Pelluaz reservoir help you find the way towards Pré Richard and the forest at La Fétiuère. The Randos-MontBlanc guide describes a shorter return. Allow for 8.8 km if you follow the loop shown here.
