Beautiful passage well equipped with chains and railings but with quite a few gaps. Very committed so go there when you have mountain feet. Do not venture there if the rock is wet.

On the drive here, I was already thinking, "What have I put Joe through?" The hike takes us through incredibly narrow streets to the end of the valley to the Cirque de Saint-Même.

Unlike our hike this morning, we're not alone here, but that's understandable given the beautiful and impressive landscape.
