To the ski area

 

The itinerary course n°3 of the Rando parc de Nax Région, starts at the Espace Loisirs Mont-Noble in Nax. Cross the fields behind the Espace Loisirs Mont-Noble following the same route as the snowshoe trail. At the Beaupin road, leave the road to go up the fields of the old ski slope. Cross the 2nd road to go up into a 2nd field which will allow you to reach the chairlift road. Cross the road (without the skis) and take the forest road just opposite which you quickly leave to take the old ski slope. Cross the Prarion mountain pasture road to continue on the old piste. At the altitude of 1530m, you will have to turn left onto a walking way. At the altitude of 1580m, turn right. Cross the alpine road again and continue on the footpath which joins the Clos de Guidon path (1793m) continue until the crossroads of roads and paths at the altitude of 1934m. Continue on this track until you reach the signpost 2050m. At this point, leave the path to cross the ski slope. Climb slightly up to a flat area and pass near a large larch tree to cross the forest (slight downhill) then flat across a clearing to the east towards Chiesso.

Downhill :  

Go down by the slope (road) which joins the large Planards slope at the place called "Par des Troncs". Go down the ski slope to the large contour on the right at the end of this slope. At the 1659m. point, leave the ski run and take the road that goes left (West) in the direction of "Prarion". Before reaching Prarion, take the old ski slope on the right which leads to the chairlift road. Cross the road directly and then go down the fields to reach the Espace Loisirs Mont-Noble. Beware, the old ski slope is not prepared !
