This week we are Hiking the top of the Saleve
We will be doing a 10km hike starting and finishing at the upper station of the newly re-opened telepherique of the Saleve.
We will meet at the bus 8 stop Veyrier Douane (there is a bus leaving Rive at 8h55 and arriving at 9h11) and walk to the lift station together.
The hike will take around 3.5 -4 hours, with roughly 350m elevation change.
A very small section of the hike is along the cliff so not suitable for people suffering from vertigo. Take poles if you are used to walking with them, as the path can be muddy after rain.
Take passport, water, snack and lunch with you in case there is no service at the café at the new lift station.
