The place offers a superb view of the plain and Lake Bourget. In the background we can see the Dent du Chat as well as the Molard. This is the ideal spot for a little stop along the road. This passage is less frequented than La Sire located a little higher up.

Hiking

Very nice viewpoint from a much lower altitude than that of Revard, which gives a different view of the landscape, less overhanging and closer to the Chambéry basin and the lake. The paragliding take-off area, a little further in the hike, is also a very pleasant place (equipped with a few benches!)
