シュヴリル湖周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ7

Here is the route for the ascent of the Col de l'Iseran starting from Bourg-Saint-Maurice

At first glance, the 4% average gradient seems manageable. But when you consider that it stretches over 47 kilometers and the climb is over 2,000 meters, it becomes a unique experience. The longest mountain pass in France, it has been crossed several times during the Tour de France.

The Combes waterfall is one of the most beautiful in the area. It can be accessed from Tignes and you can take the opportunity to walk along the banks of the Chevril lake.

The way this waterfall slides over its impressive rock before falling into the Chevril lake creates the effect of a bridal veil. A magnificent spectacle in the middle of the mountains.

Very pretty path along a cliff overlooking the Isère, which offers very pretty views. The path is safe, equipped with cables to help those who have a fear of heights.

very impressive setting for an almost never-ending climb

The Chevril Dam lake, or Tignes, is decorated with a very pretty statue by the Italian artist Livio Benedetti, named "The Lady of the Lake". The sculpture is located between the banks and the road, therefore easily accessible to be admired. Another work of art is located on the dam itself and therefore more difficult to see. It is a gigantic wall fresco representing Hercules who seems to be holding back water by his sole force. It is the highest French dam. It supplies two hydroelectric power stations.
