Freerando depuis Le Chazelet

As for the Plagnes ski lift, to the north of the resort, it is ideally located to reach the Signal de La Grave and even more if you have affinity and good calves.

This starting point for freerando is located on the Chazelet estate:
Le Chazelet is a small family resort, but behind its peaceful atmosphere hides a formidable free rando potential to make skins and spatulas smoke. For the moment only the initiated know it… but Le Chazelet is already “the place to be” as soon as the “White Spirit” gets involved.

Routes from the Emparis and Les Plagnes ski lifts to Chazelet:

– Tour of Gros Têt
From the top of the Emparis ski lift, take the southern ridge, pass the Col de la Brèche (2350 m) then the summit of Gros Têt (2613 m). The descent? Depending on your mood: an east face to follow the right bank and return to the track or retrace your steps and choose your line... to start again better.

From the top of the Emparis ski lift, you just need to reach the summit of Gros Têt by following the ridge in order to cross the Emparis plateau to the Saint-Georges pass (2245 m) and descend the slopes along the GR to the village of Besse-en-Oisans (car shuttle).
