Magnificent hike in the Val d'Illiez. The trail climbs to the top of Signal de Soi (2054m) and heads towards the magnificent Lac de Soi (2246m). It is possible to walk around the lake and enjoy the alpine views. Along the babbling Torrent des Crêtés it returns to the starting point.

The trail starts in Champoussin at the foot of the Aigulle des Champeys cable car and then goes straight into open terrain via the path Chemin de l'Au up to the top of the Col de l'Au at 2022m and then on to the Point de l' Au at 2152m. After a few more kilometers it reaches the top of the Col des Portes du Soleil at 1950m. Then it's back down to the starting point. It is a terrain, partly rocky, without much shelter, where you are exposed to the sun, especially in summer. So please don't...

We start this beautiful and short hike, which is accessible to all, in Val-d'Illiez in the Swiss canton of Valais. The route starts from Le Poussin via the Chemin des Croix to reach a magnificent viewpoint just next to the covered area of Frâchette. Via the path on the ridge we return to the starting point.

This short walking route starts in the center of Champoussin and then heads straight into the open countryside through the Les Champeys area. After a short time it reaches Les Bochasses at 1737m. Then one strolls leisurely back down. It is a terrain, partly rocky, without much shelter, where you are exposed to the sun, especially in summer. So please don't forget to bring adequate sun protection and water.

We are at the bottom just above the charming village of Champéry. We follow the Torrent de la frâche during the whole climb in order to reach the magnificent lakes of antèmes. It lies below the large rock walls of the Val-d'Illiez of a delimited cirque bounded by the Haute Cime and Dent de la Chaux mountains. The view is magnificent and brings you everything you are looking for during a walk.
