Cross-country on Les Mosses-la Lécherette (n° 556 SM)
Route Information
Description
Not by chance is the area around Les Mosses, with its gentle hills and wide plateaus, considered a dream destination for cross-country skiers. The Maison de l’Espace Nordique is the starting point for unforgettable cross-country skiing experiences, such as the cross-country trail from Les Mosses to La Lécherette, leading through the "Mosses" marshes.
This sunny run starts not far from the Maison de l’Espace Nordique. The first section of the route leads through a rather hilly landscape, mostly downhill and past the typical wooden chalets. The rustic Buvette L'Arsat appears and welcomes you for a snack. Turn left to continue towards La Lécherette and follow the track to the right of the ski lift, across pastures and through wooded areas. At La Lécherette, turn around and take the long straight stretch towards L'Arsat. On the last section back to Les Mosses, you will cross a hilly area with a small gradient.
