Freerando starting from Le Chazelet

This departure point is on Le Chazelet ski area :
Le Chazelet is known as a small, family-orientated resort, yet its peaceful appearance conceals a fabulous potential for free-rando that will really get your skins going. At the moment, only a lucky few know about it, but Le Chazelet is already “the place to be” once the “White Spirit” gets going.
