A warning to walkers seen near Refuge de Vallonpierre (Stage 6)

Once you've begun the trek don't be intimidated by the steepness of the way ahead, or by the perceived difficulties of the next col to be crossed. Remain alert to possible dangers, but as you do so settle into a comfortable pace and take time to soak up the views, the sounds and scents of the journey. Make your Tour of the Oisans an experience of the senses that you can recall years later. Unless the weather is threatening, or you are running short of time, allow yourself a few minutes every hour or so to sit on a rock and contemplate the peace and natural beauty that are among the gifts of this route. You'll not regret it.

Please be considerate when making a toilet stop during the day. Keep well away from water sources, burn used toilet paper, and bury faeces as effectively as possible. Remote buildings or ruins should not be used as public conveniences; they could serve as a shelter from storm for yourself and other walkers. Please leave no litter, but take packaging with you for proper disposal in a village en route.
