Mont Noble from Nax via the Forest (Mont Noble Mount Noble Mt. Noble)
Hiking Trail
Hard
4.58 mi
4,305 ft
A beautiful scenic route up Mont Noble from the pretty village of Nax through the small forest paths. A full day hike but never too hard.
The best route up Mont Noble from the village of Nax using the quieter paths. You can be sure to find plenty of solitude in the company of wildflowers, and perhaps the odd herd of Herens cows grazing. The path winds through the forest on nice narrow (but never technical) paths before traversing across the alpine meadows and to the clear summit of Mont Noble. Fantastic views across to the Oberland, down the Rhone valley, and back towards Verbier and Mont Blanc from the summit. Those wanting something more challenging can continue along to the col du cou and to the Lac de Louche. A wonderful clear lake in the high alpine—a perfect spot for a picnic before making your way back the way you came, towards the Becs de Bosson or the Vallon de Rechy. Written by FATMAP Official
