Public transport - main bus stop Chamrousse 1750 - Roche Béranger + 9 minutes approach time (or secondary shuttle stop Chamrousse 1700 - Villages du Bachat + 5 minutes) :
• regular bus service all year round: N93 (to/from Grenoble), "Chamrousse 1750" stop [merger of former bus routes T87, Transaltitude and Destination neige Skibus / nature Estibus 707].
• bus line / shuttle on reservation weekdays excluding public holidays: Flexo 57 to/from Uriage [former TAD TouGo transport on demand - line G701].
• resort shuttle in winter and summer: "Centre Commercial (1750)" stop (to/from Chamrousse 1650 - Recoin and Chamrousse 1600 - plateau de l'Arselle/nordic area)
Resort road access from Grenoble: Rocade Sud > exit no. 2 "Uriage" > Route départementale 111 (RD 111) on the Luitel side.
Recommended parking: Bachat Bouloud village
Access: from the Bachat village parking lot (close to the Alté Chamrousse Aventures tree-climbing park), head east, finding a forest track in a hairpin bend. At the start of the path, find a "reservation" sign with a map where it's easy to find your way around. This sign was used when the Bachat Bouloud centers were in operation. Children from the center had priority in this sector (hence the sign).
Jean-Jaques Terne, the fitter, has studied the layout of the sealed spindles to suit the pedagogy of the children and teenagers.
Some boulders are only equipped with moulinettes (7, 10 bis and 12).
Recommended ropes: 40 m
Boulders 2 and 3 are immediately on the left, a few meters from the road.
Boulders 4, 5 and 6 are further to the left, after crossing the old "piste des clairières" (under the line of the now-defunct chairlift of the same name).
For boulders 7, 8 and 9, look for a clearing on the left of the piste. They're right at the bottom: you'll find boulder 7 first, with the others to follow.
Boulders 12, 13 and 14 are at the bottom of the Astragale trail (15-minute walk).
