Single qui commence dans les pâturages depuis le sommet du Colomby de Gex et se termine à Branvaux. Superbe plongée sur le lac Léman, avec une vue magnifique tout le long. Bien suivre le GR pour y accéder car certaines zones sur les crêtes sont protégées. C'est un chemin qui se mérite, l'accès est difficilement roulable par endroits.
Attention aux nombreux marcheurs.

Access Info

Par le GR Balcons du Léman, très difficilement roulable par endroits. Névés sur l'itinéraire jusqu'en Juin
