Duration of the route (in hours): 1.5 Tips:

The forest path  between Crêt and the Moulin d’Hylarion may be slippery in wet weather.

For a mountain bike outing, wear a helmet and bring enough water.

The paths are shared with pedestrians and horseback riders, who have priority, so you should adapt and control your speed.

To use the mountain bike passages, do not hesitate to get off the bike.

This route crosses pastures and follows forest paths. Also for the respect of the owners, for the tranquility of livestock and wildlife, you are invited to stay on the marked trails and to close the barriers in the event of no mountain bike passage.

Wildflowers are beautiful, they can be rare and protected and often wilt quickly. Don't pick them! They will delight the next admirers.

In the event of forestry work (felling, skidding, etc.), for your safety, know how to give up and turn around.
