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 went on a hike in the Bauges mountains not far from Pointe de la Sambuy: I walked up Parc du Mouton, Mont d’Orisan and Grand Roc.
Last summer, I went on a hike in the Bauges mountains: Starting from the upper station of Télésiège de la Sambuy, I walked a trail around Pointe de la Sambuy, passing by Chalet de la Bouchasse, Col du Drison, the summit of Pointe de Chaurionde, Col d’Orgeval and finally getting back to Faverges through Vallon de Saint-Ruph.
I spent last summer (and more) in Annecy, in Haute-Savoie. I went back on a hike to Pointe de la Sambuy, in the Bauges mountains near Faverges (south of Annecy). This time, I took the standard trail to the summit.
This is part 2 of the day-hike to Pointe d’Arcalod, Pointe de Chaurionde & Pointe de la Sambuy. After Col d’Orgeval, I basically followed this itinerary. Check the previous post for a map of the actual path I walked.
After getting down to Col d’Orgeval from Pointe d’Arcalod, I went up again on the other side to Pointe de Chaurionde, just as the sun was reappearing. From the summit, I could see up to Albertville and the Beaufortain. Still no Mont Blanc unfortunately… I then followed the ridge trail to Pointe de la Sambuy. Slightly before reaching the base of the Pointe, I left the ridge looking for the way up to the summit, a path that would involve rock-climbing the face of the Sambuy to the top. I saw some pink markers but I kept looking since the path they indicated was looking more difficult than what I had read. It was the correct way however… It turned out it was not that hard even though the rocks were not very solid, so I just had to be extra-careful. Finally, I arrived at the summit! I was the only one there. I then made my way down and, after a detour through the Petite Sambuy (Small Sambuy) below, I took the ski lift to the base of the Seythenex-Sambuy ski resort. There was a summer luge track so I spent a bit of time there. The next step was pretty tedious since I had to walk back to Faverges using the paved road. It took much longer than I had estimated and when I arrived at the village of Seythenex, I realized I would not make it in time for the last bus to Annecy. At that point, I started running, cutting through the woods at some point and then on the road that leads to Tamié. I arrived at the bus stop 15min late but, fortunately, so did the bus.
