Camino de Santiago / Via Gebennensis: Walk from Col du Mont Sion to Frangy
At the end of winter, I walked on the Via Gebennensis from Col du Mont Sion to Frangy, continuing the Camino de Santiago where I had left off the last time.
Here is a map of the path I walked (download KML):
In the morning, I took a LIHSA bus (T72 line) to Col du Mont Sion. Then I started walking through fields, villages and forests. Along the way, there was a great view on the Jura mountains, like Le Vuache or Grand Crêt d’Eau. Finally, I arrived in Frangy, where I took a LISHA bus (22 line) back to Annecy.
