    Beautiful views

      This section of road offers an incredible view of the Aiguilles d'Arves. Relatively easy, this part is however not very wide in places and offers few parking spaces.

        You'll probably think "Wow" at this point with the sensational view of the Aiguilles d'Arves, and not just because the three peaks look like a "W" from a distance. The valley in front of it also meanders along so idyllic that you'll probably want to stop for a moment to capture this impression with a photo. The small road that leads to this beautiful viewpoint is also not to be sniffed at. It winds through the forest until the three peaks suddenly appear on the horizon and the aforementioned "Wow" rolls from your lips.
