Route Information
Description
This sporty route takes you through the vineyards to the charming mountain village of Corbeyrier.
At Aigle station, take the exit on track 3, then start the walk on the right following the pedestrian signs. Cross the roundabout and continue on the Route des Lieugex.

Another 30 minutes of walking between the edge of the forest and the road, and you arrive in Corbeyrier. On arrival in Corbeyrier, you can either take the post bus to Aigle or go back down the alternative route.
