Getting up high
The Rosay cable car (from the Village) and the Lachat chairlift are accessible to pedestrians, mountain bikers and paragliders. This is a great opportunity for hikers to explore some of the 160km of marked hiking trails, and for mountain bikers to access several of the 178km of marked trails.
From the summit of Mont Lachat de Châtillon (the highest point in the area), contemplative visitors can enjoy an exceptional 360° panoramic view of the Jura, the Aravis, Bargy, Bornes, Bauges and Chablais massifs, as well as the summit of Mont Blanc and some of the highest peaks in the Alps, which can be seen from an orientation table. You can also enjoy a moment of relaxation at altitude with deckchairs and a petanque area.
Paragliders, come and (re)discover the Lachat site, a benchmark for hang-gliding.

Setting off on an adventure
Thrills and spills! At the Parcours Aventure de la forêt des Dodes, more than 80 activities in the trees are at your disposal: zip lines, monkey bridges, cable crossings, Nepalese footbridges, cable biking and skating…
Follow in the footsteps of the Aravis hidden treasure and meet the valley’s inhabitants to help you on your quest! The Escape game “La légende de Jean de la Mine” is an outdoor game on a tablet, with a story and challenges to unlock the rest of the story little by little… until you find the treasure.
Walking the rocks
The via ferrata at the Tour du Jallouvre is now open, so take advantage of the opportunity to climb the rocks of the Bargy massif on a route of difficulty AD (variant l’Eterlou) to D+. Unless you’d prefer to tackle one of the big climbing routes on the Colombière cliff…
For more information on forthcoming openings, check the conditions before you go.
