Route description:
Start the hike calmly, as the slope is steep at first. Cross the forest road 3 times before reaching the baraque de Divonne. Continue up to the "Portail" (you can climb up and back to the viewpoint indicator, which offers a panoramic view of Lake Geneva and the Alps).
Follow a combe to the chalet de la Petite Grand, then a path to the Col de Combe Blanche. Take the road to the right to reach "la Cabosse" (junction with the GR-Balcon du léman). Turn right towards Grande Grand, then Petit Sonnailley (border crossing), then follow the signs for La Dôle along a small alpine road, then a path leading to a ridge. Return by the same route.
