Walking in the mountains with small
and substantial differences in height!


The possibilities for walking near the Gîte are from easy to very difficult. Just from the Gîte you can make short and light walks, but also long ones and very challenging. The village lies at the foot of the rocks of the "Chaine des Fiz" with summit's over 2000 meter, there you find the challenging walks with big difference in heights. It is always possible in onde day to make a walk to a mountain hut and back to the Gîte.

In the mountains around the village there are several lakes, where to you can make walks. A simple walk you can make to the "Lac Vert", two walks more long and severe walks to the "Lac d'Anterne" or the "Lac de Pormonaz".

Just above the village lies "Le desert de Platé", a geological very interesting area, where you can find fossil's and footsteps of the Dinosaur. To walk up there takes about two and a half hour, but is worth while.

Also nera Chamonix, St-Gervais Les Bains en Flaine it is possible to make excellent and challenging walks.
In the Gîte we have a lot of information and maps available.
