Hike to Chapeau de Napoléon
At the end of 2022, I went on a hike to Chapeau de Napoléon, a minor summit located between Mont Veyrier and Mont Baret above Lake Annecy. The name refers to the similarity of its shape with the hat worn by Napoléon.

Last summer, I went on a hike to Montriond and Pointe de la Sambuy. I had already been a few times to La Sambuy but this time, I didn’t take the chairlift on the way up. Instead, I started from Station de la Sambuy and passed through Chalets de l’Aulp de Seythenex and Banc de la Linguale.
Last summer, I walked from Col des Aravis to Col de Merdassier, passing through Col de la Blonnière.
During the summer of 2020, I walked along Lac du Bourget from the Grand Port of Aix-les-Bains to Le Bourget-du-Lac. I also visited Château de Thomas II on the way.
Last summer, I went on a hike to Arpettaz de Thuy, a rocky ridge below Tête de l’Arpettaz and above La Balme de Thuy near Thônes.
Last fall, I went on a hike to Mont Truc, in Saint-Gervais-les-Bains. In French, its name would translate to Mount Thingy, but in Franco-Provençal, a truc is actually a small hill. I had already passed through the area, when I went on a hike to Mont Vorassay.
