An ibex and a bearded vulture, emblematic animals of our mountains, surmount an earthen globe to look towards the source of the Arve and the future. The Franco-German artist wanted this work and its circular base to be a meeting point and contemplation point on the walkers' route.

Possibility to discover the Church of Notre Dame de Toute Grace and the Heritage Centre in Plateau d'Assy.
