Topo / step by step

From the town hall of Saint-Sigismond to La Bordaz: 1h20 From the town hall, take the road towards Agy via Les Granges de la Frasse. Follow the arrows to a place called Chemin du Jourdil. From there, go up the road to the left for 200 meters. At the La Pierre du Crêt sign, go up to the left, via a fairly steep path, towards La Bordaz (1h10). Pass two old farms and continue to climb (no markings, but obvious path). At the earthen steps, turn left, as far as Chemin de la Bordaz. The climb is over. From La Bordaz to Agy (La Croix): 25 minutes Turn left to the end of the shaded path which leads to the ridges before arriving at the car park of the La Tanière restaurant. La Croix d'Agy is 5 minutes away. From Agy (La Croix) to Hauts Choseaux: 40 minutes To come down from the Cross, retrace your steps. Take the departmental road and follow the path to the left, which descends under the road. After about 500 meters, cross this road again and continue to descend to the village of Agy. The path crosses the road several times before arriving at the hamlet of Hauts Choseaux. From Hauts Choseaux to Saint-Sigismond town hall: 35 minutes At the crossroads, go straight on towards Croix du Chêne. Arrived at the cross, take the paved road on the left until its terminus. The road continues and becomes a path. At the crossroads, turn left to reach the town hall car park.
