Levron - Col du Tronc - Col du Lein - Levron
After parking by the church, head to the western end of the village of Levron (1,313 m), in the direction of Col du Tronc. The route, which follows the hiking trail, rises gradually as it skirts along the edge of the forest to reach the Col du Tronc. Once at the pass (1,580 m), two options are available:
- Follow the road in the direction of Col du Lein (1,656 m), a quiet spot with its own charm, then return to Levron on a path that passes through the larch forest.
– If you’re feeling more athletic, make a detour along the route to La Crevasse (1,807 m) to admire the magnificent views of Entremont. The hike from Col du Tronc to La Crevasse and back again takes around 1 hour.
The Levron route via the two passes is also available on the Topofinder app: a free app (smartphone/web) that transforms your walk into an interactive experience.
