Itinerary n°7 La Combe
Work is being carried out on the drinking water reservoirs at Mase in the Tsa Creta sector. This will affect the Rando Parc itineraries starting from Mase.
It is best to start from Nax and Vernamiège. If you really want to leave from Mase, take the uphill path for the descent.
The Movement Tracks may only be used by people with the required technique, physical condition and equipment for ski touring, including emergency equipment (avalanche transceiver, shovel, probe). Please stay on the marked routes to avoid the danger of avalanches.
Each hiker ascends and descends at his/her own risk and responsibility. All hikers are subject to the FIS rules and must follow the SKUS guidelines (Swiss Commission for the Prevention of Accidents on Snow Sports Slopes).
The slopes and downhill runs are closed outside of opening hours and may not be used. Grooming machines with traction cables - danger of death! Only the resort and the persons responsible for the safety of the lifts and groomers may open the slopes and downhill runs to ski tourers.
The Nax Region Tourist Office declines all responsibility in the event of an accident. Please follow the safety instructions.
The itinerary "La Combe" starts from the parking of Tsa Crêta in Mase. Take the forest road for 20m and then leave it to take a path (snowshoe route) that climbs to the right. At the top of the Rimble (1898m), we will have to follow the forest road until a crossroads. Cross the road and take the path that goes up opposite (snowshoe route 3b). At a small clearing at 2100m, fork completely from south to north to join the forest road at altitude 2144m. Cross the road and take the path that climbs opposite (snowshoe itinerary 3b). Follow this road until you reach the bottom of the Combe chairlift and then go around the chairlift from underneath. Go up La Combe staying always on the right side of the trail without going too far to the right under the slopes of Mont Gautier (avalanche). At the Col de Cou go north and join the trail where it goes flat. By the edge of the slope join the Mont-Noble.
The downhill is done by another way:
