Les Cycl'O gourmandes: From the village to the resort

(1) Start from "Denarié Sport 2000" in Morillon village. Turn left out of the store, then left again onto route de Visigny.
After the "Pont de la Perrière" bridge, turn left onto the "route des champs" and cross the locality known as "Vers le
Pont". Admire the gates of Atelier Saint-Martin, a renowned metal-work shop. Climb up to the hamlet of Les Miaux
and its 16th-century chapel (2), then on to the hamlet of Les Champs, continuing straight ahead on the Chemin de
la Biolle, through the hamlets of Les Rasses and Chozal Raymond. Be careful, the road is narrow. After a final climb
through the forest, turn right onto the RD54 or route des Esserts (at the "Chatelard sud" sign), which you will take up
to Les Esserts, a resort on a human scale, where it's good to stay for its family atmosphere and its many activities
and shops.
Take a right after the first residences, then the first left to reach the first stores under the arcades. The "Aux délices
des Esserts" bakery (3) is just past the Intersport store. Take advantage of the terrace to sample some of their
home-made products.
Then return to the road you came from and this time take the road on the right to pass under the gondola lift leading
from the resort to the village and past the Odalys residence. Take the route du Mas devant or route d'été down to
the hamlet of Le Verney and its chapel. Caution, narrow and winding road.Take the route du Verney on your left and
then the route de Samoëns or RD4 on your left. Pass the tourist office and, at the Hôtel le Morillon, take the route du
lac bleu on your right. At the roundabout, take the route des Grands champs on your left and at the next intersection,
turn left onto the route de Cluses to reach the "Denarié Sport 2000" store (1).
