What you can expect

Spend a half-day outdoors, enjoying spectacular panoramas, listening to legendary tales, and discovering the landscapes of Savoie.

Accompanied by a mid-mountain guide, you will follow a hiking route suitable for both beginners and more experienced hikers, with no particular technical difficulties. The trail winds through alpine pastures and forests, gradually revealing exceptional views of the Aix-les-Bains basin, Chambéry, and the surrounding mountain ranges.

Throughout the hike, your guide, Anaïs, will suggest breaks to help you better appreciate the landscapes around you. She will explain to you how the Bauges and Chartreuse mountains were formed, how to interpret the terrain, and the major geological events that shaped this unique region. Those who are particularly interested will also have the opportunity to learn about local legends associated with certain iconic peaks and passages, spanning popular beliefs and ancient tales.

At the summit, the Croix du Nivolet offers a breathtaking 360-degree panorama, a veritable natural balcony overlooking lakes, valleys, and plains. This is a special moment to admire the scenery, take photos, and simply take time to contemplate.

This is the perfect excursion to get acquainted with mountain hiking, learn about the Savoie region’s landscapes, and enjoy a friendly, guided, and enriching experience in the heart of unspoiled nature.
