Description

Itinerary:
Open 6 days a week, the Sybelles Express chairlift takes you in the direction of Ouillon along the path alongside the Niéblais ski lift.
1 - At the end of the chairlift, turn right to join the path heading towards La Toussuire - Croix de Coin Cavour. The route crosses a mountain pasture plateau along the steep slopes of the Comborsière valley.
2 - From La Croix de Coin Cavour, follow the signs for Fond de Comborsière down a winding path. At Fond de Comborsière, turn right to join the 4x4 track that runs alongside the Garney stream. At the fork in the road, continue straight ahead to rejoin the road and turn right to reach Le Corbier.

Good to know:
- The descent is steep, so don't forget your poles.
- Sometimes the marmots come out at the bottom of Comborsière.
- Chairlift timetable: ask at the chairlift departure point.

Option:
If you're feeling sporty, you can do the loop without a lift.
