Plaine-Joux

Highlight • Other

Plaine-Joux has one of the most beautiful views of the Mont Blanc range and its needles. Take a few minutes for a coffee / ice cream break and watch the paraglider pilots take off from here.

In winter, Plaine-Joux is a fairly busy ski resort that attracts winter sports enthusiasts. During the summer, hikers and cyclists come to discover the magnificent panorama facing Mont Blanc, at an altitude of 1,358 to 1,740 meters.

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

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.
