    Tips

    The Platé desert is a natural curiosity, a completely incredible place. Here you are in front of a limestone plateau of about 1980 hectares made up of lapiaz, these rocks with such a special appearance that have been carved out by meltwater and glaciers over the centuries. It is one of the largest lapiaz in Europe! As a bonus, you even have a very nice view of Mont Blanc. A must see !

        Here you can find fossils from the sea!

        Follow the red balls and watch where you put your feet so they don't tip over.
