Balcons d'Annemasse

The first four kilometres of this tour really do run along the Swiss border, often to within a few metres, from boundary marker 113 to marker 136. On the French side, you will dominate the Foron valley until you cross this torrent, at Machilly, to return under the imposing forest mass of the Voirons mountain. It is there that you will see, if you are very attentive, the neolithic dolmen of the Cave-aux-Fées, which is admittedly less impressive than the one of the Pierre-aux-Fées! But keep some reserves under your foot because you will have to pass immediately the second one to carry out the ascent on Lossy, which, even if it is not strong, is nevertheless 2 km long. Your last ascent, to Cranves-Sales, will be shorter. Finally, be careful on the last 3 km, along the RD907 after Bas-Monthoux.
