フィノー周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

The Cirque du Fer-à-Cheval owes its name to the semicircular shape of its cliffs. Its impressive height (2,000 meters) gives rise to a multitude of waterfalls, the number of which varies depending on the season. It is very easy to access. Twin to the Pyrenean Gavarnie, it is the most visited and best-known site in Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval. Surrounding the eastern slope of the Giffre Valley, it is an immense limestone amphitheater 4 to 5 km long, whose steep cliffs can reach 2,000 m in height. It is the largest Alpine cirque, dominated by the Corne du Chamois. It rests on the steep slopes of the Tenneverge (2,985 m). In June, more than thirty waterfalls gush from its walls.

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 🙂

A circus accessible to all, a peaceful hike at your own pace, a large green space. A feast for the eyes

Unique landscape easy with familly

The first of the Cheserys lakes, a shame that transit through the other small ones was prohibited.

Modest, compared to the rest, but also extraordinary, because of the frame.

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.
