Excursion 03

Sunday, 7 Jun 1998

Dear colleagues,

Dear friends,
As at the begining of every session we start with affordable excursions to recover the lost good shape of previous year. The one I am proposing has no particular difficulty and it is at low altitude. It is based on excursion number 2 of 1996. My proposal for excursion 03 (this Sunday) is the following:


Date: Sunday, 7 Jun 1998
Site: "Mont de Hermone - Chlle. ND de Hermone (1320 m)"
Classification: Easy
Altitude: 1415 m. (highest point)
Climbing up distance: 585 m.
Climbing time: 2.0 hours
Total hiking time: 4.0 hours
Starting point: Reyvroz - (833 m).
Meeting point: CERN Main Cafeteria, on Sunday at 9.00 am
Remarks: Nice view over the Leman lakeMEETING_POINT = CERN Main Cafeteria, on Sunday at 9.00 am
Access: Take road N5 to Thonon les Bains. From there take roadD26 to Armory and continue by the same road up to Reyvroz. Drive up to the Church and find a parking place.

The trip from CERN to Reyvroz should take less than 1h 10 minutes.

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.

I hope weather conditions will allow an enjoyable excursion! Cheers! Jose.
