Plaine Morte Glacier

Highlight • Natural Monument

The glacier plain at 2,927 metres will take your breathe away. Take a moment to enjoy the views from the high plateau: the Rhône Valley, the Valais, and the Alpine chain all the way to Mont Blanc.

The Cry d'Er, at an altitude of 2,258 metres, is a superb place to admire the Lac du Rawil, also called Lac de Tseuzier. You can also see the imposing dam that prevents the water reservoir from flowing into the valley.
