After starting in Les Paccots, we first hike through the forest. At Vuipay Dessous, you can already see the first peak of our route today, the Teysachaux. We still have 650 metres of ascent to its summit. The last 400 metres are completed in just one kilometre (steep ascent). The wonderful view rewards us for the effort. After a short but steep descent, we reach the Crête du Moléson, a fairly wide grassy ridge. We follow this up to the Moléson. Past the cable car station to the viewpoint. The panoramic view is magnificent. The descent goes westwards and then clockwise around the huge mountain we just conquered until Plan Francey, where the hike ends.
