The “ru” is an irrigation channel, that carried the meltwater to meadows, fields and lands, and give fertility to dry soils.
Description of the route
Starting from Bruil village take Alta Via n.2 route that leads to the path along the ancient irrigation channel called “Grand Ru”. The “ru”, which is around 2 km long, has been requalified and runs from the natural water intake (Entrelor waterfalls) that you can reach with a 15 minutes detour on the right.
If you continue on the left, the path winds flat into the wood until the winter ski slopes, where the route descends towards Le Pessey hamlet. After reaching the valley floor continue on the Nature Trail to reach Bruil again.
