Well visible from Samo\u00ebns, which it dominates from all its height, the Aouille de Criou is a belvedere of choice on the Massif du Giffre, but also the Aravis, the Massif du Mont-Blanc and the Grand Massif. Despite the absence of any particular difficulty to reach the Chalets du Criou, this hike is for trained hikers due to the significant gain and the length of the route. I advise you to continue past the chalets to reach the cliff and the impressive view overlooking the Col de la Gol\u00e8se. The most courageous will be able to continue until the Aouille de Criou materialized by a cross. Be careful, however, the gain becomes much greater and the last part of the climb requires a sustained effort. From intermediate difficulty to the Chalets du Criou, the rating becomes &#8220;Hard&#8221; for the summit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"cap\" >Care must also be taken in wet weather when descending from the top.
