The Chemin du Petit Bonheur is a valley-bottom path linking all the villages. Signposted in both directions and presenting little difficulty, it can be walked in its entirety or in sections. It also takes mountain bikers to the various start points for the cross-country routes and all the fun facilities (Bike Park, Enduro and cross-country). Finally, it is the preferred route for returning from the Enduro courses. In a way, it's the showcase for Haute Maurienne Vanoise's mountain bike offering.
