Granite is an emblematic rock of the valley, both in the mountains and in town. Brought from the depths of the earth to embellish Chamonix's facades, I'll tell you all about its history and take you on a tour of an old quarrying site to understand the history and know-how of the "graniteurs" of yesteryear.
Recommendations: Sports shoes, weather-appropriate clothing and a water bottle.
