Trail description

A 6.7 km climb of about 980 m from Les Houches to the top of Le Prarion, 1,969 m, on the ridge that runs down from the Aiguille du Gouter past the Col de Voza. The mountain is mostly wooded and has stayed free of the big tourist developments of its neighbours. Its summit has an orientation table and a paragliding take-off, and can also be reached on the Tour du Pays du Mont-Blanc from the Col de Voza, served by the Mont Blanc Tramway.
