アンテルヌ湖周辺のおすすめ滝ハイキング＆ウォーキング

In autumn, a room is open as a place to sleep (go up the steel stairs at the back).

The Cascade du Rouget, also known as the "Queen of the Alps," is one of the most impressive waterfalls in Haute-Savoie. It's a lovely place to linger, and you can park right there 🙂

Breathtaking view of the Fiz line with the Mt Blanc massif in the background, the Buet, the Anterne plateau, the Fer à Cheval, the Giffre Valley and the Platé Desert.

Try that brownie ;)

The Rouget waterfall is a waterfall in the Giffre Valley (France) which flows all year round from the Sales torrent upstream and which joins the Giffre des Fonds downstream to constitute the Petit Giffre in the commune of Sixt- Horseshoe. It is made up of three jumps: the first two upstream of the road separated by a short flat which constitutes the upstream fall and a last one downstream of the road after a short course of the torrent which constitutes the downstream fall. The upstream fall is around a hundred meters high with a jump halfway up which can be impressive when the snow melts due to the rebound of the water on the stone slab. In case of high flow, splashes of water make the surrounding stones slippery; accidents have already occurred in these dangerous conditions. It is accessible directly by a small road, which makes it a very popular tourist site despite the deterioration of the surface. It is one of the two referenced sites in the commune with the Fer-à-Cheval cirque. Her nickname is “the queen of the Alps”. Popular traditions have attributed to it virtues of virility and fertility to such an extent that the elders still offer a bottle of this water to newlyweds, without the qualities of this water having ever been proven. This waterfall was named the most beautiful French waterfall in 2009.

Buvette and restaurant on the outskirts of Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval, offering food and drinks in a beautiful alpine setting. A great place to have a coffee before a long mountain walk or a cold beer afterwards.

Very beautiful Rouget waterfall
