Hike - At Balvay castle by Didier
April 26, 2025 · Community
Très jolie randonnée réalisée dans le sens inverse (Bolozon-mont Balvay-Vers-Napt). Dans ce sens aucun problème de balisage. La vue sur le cours de l'Ain au mont Balvay est effectivement magnifique. Celle sur le plateau entre Soloniat et Vers n'est pas mal non plus.

Hike - At Balvay castle by Audrey

Très chouette itinéraire avec un point de vue final absolument magnifique. Cependant, pour compléter les commentaires précédents, le tracé gpx après Vers et la ferme, n'est pas bon. Il ne faut absolument pas le suivre et ouvrir grand les yeux pour ne pas rater la grosse flèche jaune sur un arbre (cf photo). C'est à cet endroit qu'il faut bien longer les arbres jusqu'en bas du champ avant de rejoindre le chemin. Il faudrait peut-être soit enregistrer à nouveau la trace soit rajouter une pancarte en contrebas. Le reste de l'itinéraire est par contre super bien indiqué. Merci
