Trail no.15 - Lac Noir
Above Les Coches and 7km long, starting from the top of the chairlift with the same name. There's a weeny 50m of climb and the rest is downhill (-490m) back to Les Coches village.
Trail no.32 - Pelerinage
Over in Plagne Montalbert this is the shortest of the green trails at 4.5km. It's a loop with 191m of climb and descent starting from around the Montalbert chairlift.
Bourg St Maurice liaison
Down on the valley floor this liaison is also graded green. It's 15km and takes you along the river all the way to Bourg where you can grab a bite to eat and head back, or head up the funicular to explore the trails in Les Arcs.
