Creux de Lachat Refuge

Highlight • Pub

It's a really nice refuge, in the heart of the hollow of Lachat mountain pasture. You can eat there during the day and spend the night there (reservation required). From the terrace, you have a view of Mont Blanc and Tournette. Quite a nice panorama!

Located at an altitude of 1,434 meters, the mountain of Bange dominates the villages of Cusy, Allèves and Arith. From there, we have a beautiful view of the Mont Revard chain.

Ascent to La Culaz

Highlight (Segment) • Other

This magnificent part joins the summit of La Culaz. The perspectives of the landscapes in the middle of these mountain pastures are truly unique. In the middle of summer, it can be very hot in this part.
