In the spring of 2021, I went on a hike to Montagne des Voirons, in the Chablais Alps near Annemasse. The usual path is to start near the monastery (Monastère de Béthlehem) below the summit then walk the short path to Signal des Voirons. Instead, I walked along the ridge, starting in Fillinges and arriving at Machilly.
