A trail between meadows and forest for those who appreciate tranquillity, taking you through the hamlet of Le Freney to the Olympic ski-jumps.
From the Peupliers hotel, by the lake, follow the Rue de la Chapelle then cross the road and take the small one alongside the cheese dairy chalet. At the first turn, go down between the houses and follow the track until you arrive into the forest. The track first goes right then left. A few hundreds of metres further, you will reach the «4 paths crossing». Take the left path. After a rather short but steep ascent, you will discover Le Freney hamlet. Follow the road on the left and, at the first turn, follow straight on alongside the forest. You will then reach the road leading to the Olympic ski-jumps and Courchevel Le Praz.
