La Grande Chartreuse, the Great Charterhouse, is the mother monastery of the Carthusian Order. It is an impressive and unique facility. It cannot be visited, but you can walk around …
Splendid gorges, whether from above from this balcony road clinging to the cliff or from below with the old (small) road which runs along the Guiers Vif and reserves some nice ass shots!
A hard gravel path that crosses the Paladru Nature Zone. It's a way to avoid the main road towards the end of the lake, and offers plenty of places to stop for a picnic.
La Cochette is part of the mount which adjoins it further north, Mount Outheran. This is an excellent hike for the family from Côte Barrier or Saint-Jean-de-Couz!
