• Guidebook with maps/step-by-step : Follow the Route Communale de Roche-Pallud through Ima forest, full of pine, fir and spruce trees, and go along the forest track to the left, to Pertuiset. The itinerary leads to the paragliding take-off site. After admiring the beautiful view of Mont-Blanc and the Pic de Marcelly in front of the Chalets de Pertuiset, go down towards Roche-Pallud. In Roche-Pallud, close to the road, go to the cross up on a headland. From there, you’ll have a spectacular view across the Bornes Mountains, Aravis Mountains, the Bargy, Cenise, Môle, etc. You'll also discover Sommand peatland at the foot of the Residences, before leaving the plateau.
