Lake Plagnes Discovery trail

Sport, Pedestrian sports, Course in Abondance
2.7 km

  • The path around the lake takes you through landscapes that have succeeded for 20 000 years.

  • You'll walk along this mountain lake and then climb along a waterfall beneath the woods. You reach the peaceful Cubourré plateau, bathed by a stream and overlooked by the Pointe d'Entre Deux Pertuis and the Pointe de Chavache. A wide track leads to a mysterious boulder. On the way back, you can stay on the track: it leads straight back to the parking lot.
  • Sustainable tourism
    By raising awareness of the local geological heritage and its links with human activities, the Chablais UNESCO Global Geopark raises awareness and understanding of important social issues on our dynamic planet: natural hazards, climate change, exploitation of natural resources, evolution of life and sustainable development.
  • Host portrait
    I am the Global Geopark label awarded to the Chablais region by UNESCO. I reward the exceptional geological value of its landscapes and its actions to preserve, enhance, raise awareness and promote sustainable development. My offer allows visitors to discover the diversity of local riches and their link to the geological history that has shaped this exceptional territory.
