Since we are being lucky in our excursions, weather-wise speaking, I will continue prolonging the session. Therefore, here is my proposal for excursion 11 on Sunday, 9th of October:
Date: | Sunday, 9 October 1994 |
Site: | Pointe de la Couennasse - Pic du Marcelly (1999 m) |
Classification: | Easy |
Altitude: | 1980 - 1999 m |
Climbing up distance: | 462 + 69 m. |
Climbing time: | 2 hours. |
Total hiking time: | 3 hours. |
Starting point: | Praz de Lys - Les Molliettes (1495 m altitude). |
Meeting point: | CERN Main Cafeteria, on Sunday at 9.00 am. |
Remarks: | Panoramics |
Access: | The starting point is nearby "Taninges" and "Les Gets".Therefore, usual road D907 from Annemasse to Taninges. In Taninges take road to "Le Gets". When reaching "Le Pont de Gets" (8 Km from Taninges) turn left to "Praz de Lys" (6 Km). Cross the ski station and park near "Les Molliettes" in a quite obvious parking space. The trip from CERN to "Praz de Lys" may take 1h30. |

It is convenient to emphasize some useful items: please do not forget to carry on (wear) raincoat, hat/cap and sun glasses, warm gloves, hiking boots or sport-footwear with thick and non-slipping sole, enough food and drinks for the own consumption. Spear dry clothes and after excursion confortable shoes are very convenient.
Have a lovely weekend! Cheers! Jose.
