Bellevaux walks

The summit is rarely visited, despite offering a splendid 360° panorama of Lake Geneva, the Chablais peaks, the Dents du Midi and the Mont Blanc massif. The route includes forest trails at the bottom and alpine pastures at the top.

A very pretty walk for everyone in an enchanting setting. The waterfall, made up of several cascades, flows into a multitude of naturally carved rock pools at a place called La Diomaz. At the foot of the waterfall is the Croix des Chartreux, engraved in the rock.

This short tour of the Crêtes de Seytroux will allow you to discover the authentic landscapes of the Chablais: mountain pastures, Tarine and Abondance cows grazing, traditional chalets... not to mention the breathtaking view of the highest peaks in the valley.

Whether you are an experienced hiker or simply looking for a nature getaway, the grand tour of the Crêtes de Seytroux promises an unforgettable adventure in the heart of the mountain pastures and forests of the Vallée d'Aulps. Be sure to take in the abundant flora along the route, and you may even spot deer or chamois around a bend in the path. A 360° panorama awaits you from the summit of Pointe de la Gay, with breathtaking views of Mont Blanc, Roc d'Enfer and all the surrounding peaks.

A lovely little walk, ideal for beginners and those preparing for medium-altitude hiking.

Set off on an adventure by climbing Pointe d'Ireuse, an iconic peak offering breathtaking panoramic views. Once at the summit, you can enjoy a spectacular 360° panorama, taking in the majestic Mont Blanc, the impressive Dents du Midi, the sparkling waters of Lake Geneva and the superb Chablais mountains. This route, accessible to experienced hikers, will take you through the peaceful mountain pastures of Seytrouset and Nifflon d'en Haut. These authentic places, preserved by time, exude a unique atmosphere of calm, wilderness and sublime landscapes. With every step you take in these mountain pastures, you will find yourself immersed in a world of serenity, where the beauty of the mountains invites you to contemplate and recharge your batteries.

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.

A modest but isolated peak, the Pointe de Miribel offers extensive views of Lake Geneva and the Haute-Savoie mountains as far as Mont Blanc. The route on the southern slope of the summit is marked by a Way of the Cross dating from 1804. This loop offers a more original and varied approach than the usual climb from Ajon, through pleasant mountain pastures and a few wooded sections.

From La Chèvrerie, I suggest a very pretty circular walk to reach the Point de ChaluneAlong the way, you can discover magnificent landscapes (particularly towards Mont Blanc and the Lake Geneva basin), accompanied by a wonderful variety of flora at the height of the season.

A lovely "lasso loop" hike in the Brevon Valley, starting from Pont de la Joux. The trail is accessible all year round.

A family walk that starts with a peaceful path along the Torrent de Seytroux, known here as the Nant de Seytroux. You will then set off to explore the hamlets of Seytroux and their traditional houses. Don't miss the view of the village centre with the Pic de la Corne in the background from the hamlet of Crêt!

Take advantage of the exceptional setting of the picturesque villages of Le Biot and Saint-Jean-d'Aulps to immerse yourself in the heart of the mountain pastures... The reward is a breathtaking view of Saint-Jean-d'Aulps, Seytroux and Mont Blanc! Along the way, don't miss the traditional alpine flowers in the middle of the green mountain pastures and the oratory nestled in the hollow of a rock.

Treat yourself to an invigorating break in the heart of nature. Take a shaded forest trail for a refreshing hike, lulled by the murmur of a stream and the discreet song of birds. The rocky walls that line the trail will remind you of the quiet power of the mountains. The climb, which is steady from the car park to the refuge, invites you to take your time. It starts off gently, giving way to a more challenging section shortly before the end — a final rewarding effort before reaching your destination, nestled in the heart of nature.

Set off to explore the picturesque hamlets and villages of the Vallée d'Aulps: a hike where nature and culture intertwine throughout the route. Our cultural heritage, surrounded by remarkable nature, will hold no more secrets for you! Along the way, discover the villages of Seytroux, Le Biot, La Baume, the Jotty dam and the superb Mont Ouzon. A trail partly through the forest where you can enjoy the natural coolness of summer. Warning: this route crosses the D902 twice, which is very dangerous and requires great care.

Reach the Graydon mountain pasture and its chapel by first taking the Roc d'Enfer cable car. You will then find yourself in a peaceful environment, surrounded by gentians and grazing cows, with Mont Blanc as a backdrop... The Graydon mountain pasture stretches out at the foot of the majestic Roc d'Enfer, where cows and goats graze peacefully on the lush grass around the small chapel surrounded by a magnificent valley.

This is a varied and wild hike, a great opportunity to breathe in the pure mountain air while discovering the flora of the mountain pastures. Along the trail, admire the panoramic view of the Vallée d'Aulps and Lake Geneva. An additional section, described in the practical information, allows you to climb to the summit of Mont Ouzon, where you can enjoy a 360° view of the Chablais, the Mont Blanc range, the Swiss peaks and Lake Geneva.

An isolated summit offering superb 360° panoramic views of Lake Geneva to the north and, to the south, the Chablais, the Swiss Alps and the Mont Blanc massif. A steep but short climb, a beautiful half-day hike.

At the foot of the Signal des Voirons and the Col de Cou, a rural loop leads to two beautiful castles, including Avully Castle, which is open to visitors.

A beautiful hike at the foot of the majestic Roc d'Enfer. You will cross the alpine pasture, among colourful mountain flowers and grazing cows, to reach the Col Ratti, the highest point offering a sublime view of Mont Blanc and the Aravis. Along the way, you can admire traditional alpine chalets. And don't be surprised if you see a herd of chamois: they are abundant in this area, which is classified as a "Natura 2000" reserve.

Two castles on the same hilltop were rivals for many years before being dismantled. This short hike, which includes a few steep sections, allows you to visit the ruins of these castles, including a Romanesque chapel, and enjoy a sweeping view of Lake Geneva. An even shorter alternative avoids most of the climb.

A short hike that ends at a dead end... This is an opportunity to venture into a little-visited forest and walk along the slopes overlooking the Dranse River above its gorges. Expect to find damp vegetation where moss grows freely.

Starting from the Sommand ski resort, this loop offers access to three peaks in the area: Haute Pointe, Pointe de Chavasse and Pointe de Chalune. This route mainly takes you through alpine pastures, offering beautiful views along the way. Please note! Some sections require caution: the route is off-trail and involves steep slopes where you must take care not to slip (see the practical information section). Please note that during the summer months (July to September), the route crosses pastoral land where there may be flocks of sheep and sheepdogs (see the practical information section).

In the heart of the Chablais region, climb two iconic peaks: the Pointe de Chalune and the Roc d'Enfer. This long and demanding hike is most difficult when crossing the Roc d'Enfer, where there are a few exposed sections that require great caution.

A must-do and very popular hike in the Sommand area. Located at over 2,000 m, the Pointe de Chalune is accessible and does not present any particular difficulty. However, don't underestimate the 578 m climb to reach the summit, a small plateau topped by a cairn, where you can enjoy a 360° panorama.

The wide path that leads to this unexpected lake is very pleasant and easy to walk on. You will quickly enjoy a wide panorama of Mont Blanc and the surrounding peaks until you reach a small glacial lake up to 10 m deep. From the lake, I suggest taking the path to Pointe du Haut Fleury. A beautiful view awaits you there, along with two orientation tables.

A lovely little hike through the mountain pastures with views of Roc d'Enfer, Mont Blanc and the Swiss Alps.
