​

What to bring:

• You MUST bring a map and compass. The map you need is the "IGN 1:25000 Randonnée et plein air 3528 ETR Morzine". The laminated one is the best.  

• Transceiver, shovel and probe. (we can provide these if you don't have them)

• Normal touring kit. We'll be looking at our maps quite a lot so bring warm layers as well. 

• Water and a packed lunch.
