Guided tours

Tour of Les Vallons

Guided tour of the rural heritage in the village of Les Vallons.

Slowly breathe in the fresh air in this pretty little valley where the scenery formed by an ancient glacial lake is now dotted with farmhouses and outbuildings such as barns, vegetable plots, sheds and orchards. See the fountains and the 17th-century chapel.
All along the way, the Savoie Heritage Guides will give you insights into the everyday life of a village that has discreetly embraced tourism as a means of keeping itself alive while continuing with its traditional crop and livestock farming. See the traces of the masons and stonecutters of the Upper Giffre Valley and follow in the footsteps of the first tourists, in the 19th century.
