This paleontological site was discovered in 2009. It houses the longest sauropod footprint in the world. These tracks have been protected and showcased under a wooden canopy since 2021. The Dinoplagne site is a private site, open to visitors only from April to October and by reservation. Opening hours and contact details are available on the website: https://www.dinoplagne.fr/

This village is not to be confused with La Plagne, which is a ski resort. It was created in 1845 at the same time as the hamlet of Tré-Montréal. These two small towns previously came from the villages of Saint-Germain-de-Joux and Le Chaillet. Its fame is partly due to its dinosaur footprints. A place dedicated to the traces of these large sauropods was created near the village and took the name Dinoplagne.

Viewpoint on Lake Genin.

nice walk

Wonderful place! There is a restaurant, ideal for a break

The promontory offers a sublime panorama of the Roche Fauconnière cirque. The site has been classified as a “sensitive natural area” since 1936. The 150 meter high cliff dominates the Semine valley and faces the Orvaz valley.

Small and cute

In the footsteps of the dinosaurs!! To discover with the family, by booking a guided tour. By bike the road is calm and magnificent.
