The balconies of Bussang

Facing the valley, take the small road to the right for 100 m and join a wide path marked by a green rectangle "Croix de Fresse". Stay on this path for about 2 km. You pass near the chalet of Croix de Fresse which offers a breathtaking view of Bussang. A little higher up is the Croix de Fresse pass (altitude 879 m). Then continue to the right along the path marked with a red circle. After 600 m, there is the possibility of detouring via the Tête des Révolles to discover a beautiful viewpoint. Continue always on the red circle path for 1.2 km. Pass in front of the Peut-Haut refuge and the memorial. Continue for 1.8 km to reach the wide Rochelotte plateau and its wooden chalet. Pass in front of the chalet and take the descending path marked with a green-white-green rectangle "Larcenaire". Descend for 1 km and arrive at a crossroads with the Col du Page road. Take the road to the right for 500 m, pass above the Azureva holiday village, then return to your vehicle. GPX track and detailed description of the route downloadable above.
