Beautiful view from the highest point of Fort Janus, one of the most important French defenses on the border with Italy. From the top of this fort you can look out over almost all corners of the area.

Beautiful viewpoint on Montgenèvre Chaberton Nevache as well as admire the work done to build this fort in this strategic position at this height ...

We went up to Fort Janus in gravel, that's fine ... for the descent too. The place is sublime.
