    From Les Ribes, the life-size playground where our children frolic, we cross over the Guil to the other side and enter the melezin via the track on the left. One hairpin turn to the right. A little further on, a yellow signposted path leads off to the left. Follow it’s merry path, climbing slightly towards the hamlet of Peynin.
    The chalets are still inhabited in summer and, together with the chapel, form a beautiful ensemble that is worth a stopover. Spring water flows from the fountain, a godsend for filling water bottles. The itinerary follows either the track or the path, turning right. The goal: the summit of the mountain pasture! It used to be home to the Aiguilles alpine ski slopes. On the way back down, take the track on the right. It takes you around the summer cottages before rejoining the uphill path.
