Seytrouset mountain pasture

This is an easy hike. You will follow a quiet road throughout your hike. You will appreciate the cool shade provided by the trees. At the end of the path: the Seytrouset mountain pasture! Enjoy the alpine atmosphere in all its splendour to the sound of cowbells near the wooden chalets, typical of the Savoyard alpine environment.
