Alpenpässe-Weg · stage 30 · Louvie–Mauvoisin

1 of 1 stages mapped · reference itinerary

The entire original line begins by Lac de Louvie near the hut, climbs the two steep passes, crosses Tête du Sarshlau and descends about 1000 metres to La Vacheresse before the full Mauvoisin finish. Its original start is northeast of the independently identified Louvie hut; no connector to the hut door is added and no new Louvie heat connection is claimed. Original whole-source figures: 11 km, 290 minutes, +900/−1300 metres. This is one complete day stage; the original 43-stage parent and separately held stages remain incomplete.
