Lac Vert Himalayan Suspension Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The bridge is still very new, the old road to Lac Vert used to be at this point. However, this slipped more and more until it was completely torn away at some point.

Green Lake

Highlight • Forest

Very beautiful lake in the forest. Green color, hence the name. Mont Blanc is reflected in it.
Even in winter, when it's frozen over and covered in deep snow, it's simply fantastic!

Les Ayères fountain

Highlight • Other

Here there is a fountain to cool off in the middle of a hike. The water is not tested, so avoid drinking it. There is an unobstructed view of the Fiz range and the Mont-Blanc massif.
