Chavany - Bourg-Argental

This is a very demanding stage that involves a radical change of landscape. From the Rhone valley, the route ascends continuously to the mountains of the Pilat Massif. It's a hard day with considerable elevation gain. The scenery becomes mountainous and wooded, of great beauty. Arrival in Bourg-Argental, a village at the heart of the Pilat, is well-deserved rest. This stage is for prepared walkers, a challenge that rewards immersion in the wildest nature.
