Moulin des Combes

Family walk in the forest in the shade of the trees leading to the old mill decorated with magnificent wood carvings. The trail passes through the hamlet of Mélèzes with its beautiful chapel, then the hamlet of Combes and its bread oven. Come and discover the small birds that inhabit this forest thanks to the explanatory panels.

Departure from Valmeinier Villages - Tourist Office. Opposite the office, follow the road on the left. At the underground car park, take the road on the left and then, 50 m further on, the one on the right towards Les Mélèzes. After 150 m, take the path on the left below the road. Just after the cross, turn left and follow the road until you reach the hamlet of Les Mélèzes. Turn left at the chapel and then, 100 m further on, before the bend in the road, go down to the left to take a small road and then a path in the undergrowth which descends towards Le Moulin. At the Côtes crossroads, go back and forth to the mill. Go back towards Les Combes, passing through Sous les Combes. Cross the small hamlet and continue on the road towards Valmeinier. Before crossing a bridge (with a penstock) take the path that goes up on the left. Go through Les Guillotières and then to the Gros Mollard. From there, continue on the road to find the hamlet of Les Mélèzes. From the hamlet, take the same route as before.
