Here is a hike located in the immense amphitheater of glacial origin that is the Cirque du Fer-à-Cheval. The path runs along the Giffre torrent, and is overlooked by cliffs measuring 500 to 700 m in height. Grandiose.

Note the presence of several waterfalls, particularly beautiful in spring.

The site is a nature reserve and dogs are not allowed beyond the Prazon bar. Before that, they are allowed on a leash.
