Hiking. Round trip from Morzine
Itinerary details
Description
From the Plateau de Nyon (accessed by car via the Route de Joux-Plane), take the path up through the alpine pastures to the Pointe de Nyon (start of the path opposite the Pré Favre chairlift terminus, follow the sign to Lac de Nyon-Guérin/Lac de Joux-Plane/Pointe de Nyon).
At the “Creux du Laouet: 1480m” sign, continue in the direction of Lac de Nyon-Guérin.
You will soon reach the chalets of Nyon Derrière (1530m) and Nyon du Creux (1620m). Lac de Nyon-Guérin can be seen just behind these chalets (artificial lake for the snow cannons of the Morzine ski area).
Return by the same route.
You can also take the Pointe de Nyon chairlift to enjoy an exceptional 360° panorama. From the top of the Pointe de Nyon, a new, entirely downhill path leads to Lac de Nyon-Guérin. This variant offers breathtaking views over Morzine and the Vallée d’Aulps.
