Hiking Trail: La Pointe d'Uble

A mid-mountain trail winding through forests and alpine pastures, offering varied views of the region.

A mountain hiking expedition, a far cry from the lively villages and resorts. Around the Pointe d’Uble, people often see bighorn sheep and chamois. The sections of this itinerary across the pastures offer some great views over the surrounding valleys and mountains.
