Le refuge de la pointe Percée par la Tête des Annes

From the Tête des Annes to the Col de l'Oulettaz, open panorama of the Restory valley, the valleys of the Grand-Bornand and the peaks of the Aravis. Then the greenery gives way to a surprising mineral setting of lapiaz to the refuge. This hike for rather seasoned walkers, will make you walk a beautiful ridge trail combining several peaks of the Aravis: the Tête des Annes (1869 m) first, then the Pointe des Delevrets (1966 m) and the Col de l'Oulettaz under the Pointe de Rouelletaz (2077 m).

Between the Grand-Bornand and Le Reposoir, the route offers superb views of the two valleys that stretch before your eyes.

The loop then continues in a mineral universe, between lapiaz and stones, the rocks form natural steps and will allow you to continue your ascent. Arrived at the crossroads of Mont Pelés, you are not very far away the objective of the day.

Indeed, along this path, you will reach the Refuge of Pointe Percée. Housed on a large expanse of lapiaz, it is the highlight of the hike and marks the border towards mountaineering since it is at the start of several access roads at the top of Pointe Percée.

A true promontory, the view of the Mont Blanc, Bargy and Aravis massifs is breathtaking and will reward your efforts.
