Snowshoeing itinerary: le Bécrêt
About
Discover the hamlets of Bécrêt and Malpasset and the ice that plays with the waters of Ugine.
Go along the ski-lift boxes on the left, cross the finish track and take the path that leaves between two rows of trees. This leads to the hamlet of Bécrêt, which you cross on a track that has become flat again.
Cross the Bécrêt ski lift. Be careful, skiers have priority!
Turn left onto the track that goes down to the bottom of the valley. We go down this one on the left by the road until a footbridge over the Ugine. Cross it and take the track that goes down following the river. Leave all the departures on the right to reach the road at La Palud. You reach the starting point by following the road for a few hundred metres.
