Chemin du Chalet Vieux

A short, very steep climb above Ormont-Dessus in Vaud. The hardest 500 metres average 23.6% and come almost at once, before your legs have settled. Expect 10 to 17 minutes. Its 3.4 TEP puts it in the easier half of the catalogue. Facing southwest, it takes the afternoon heat and melts out early in the year. Graded as a hiking trail, so fitness matters more than footing. The nearest named summit, La Palette at 2,171 m, is 633 m away.

TEP: 3.4
