The plateau of Montrond is in the heart of the mountain pastures, in the middle of gentians, blueberries and other wild flowers that the cows nibble with greed.
The gently sloping path winds its way through the remains of chalets once occupied during the summer months. It is marked out with sound elements and other objects symbolizing this very particular life, by which the people of the country testify of the life of yesterday and today.
In this grandiose setting at the foot of the splendid Aiguilles d'Arves, called the "three majestic ones", follow the poetic and fascinating stories of shepherds, farmers, mountaineers, guides, storytellers...
They will make you relive with emotion the hard work, the dreams of climbing, the sweetness of the ancestors and the ecstasy of childhood... As if you were there!
A real moment of sharing and exchange with the whole family. And maybe you will even approach some marmots a little too curious.
