Description of the route by the creator

Intermediate hike with beautiful views of the Glières plateau mountains. Park in the small village of Usillon (beware, there is little space in the village). The trail is well-marked and easy to follow, and in several places there are signs pointing the way. Make a loop to reach the Pierre Taillée belvedere, which offers a beautiful view over the plain and the back of the Parmelan and the Plateau des Glières.
