A starting point for numerous hikes in summer and winter alike, Chinaillon reveals a mountain that is accessible, inhabited and always on the move. Between lively alpine pastures and open ridges, the trails lead to encounters with a nature that is both welcoming and unspoilt.
The old village, with its weathered wooden chalets – some over a hundred years old – bears witness to a deep-rooted local history. Here, heritage isn’t just something you visit, it’s something you experience. L’Art Vache adds a quirky touch to the landscape, an artistic nod to mountain culture.
Between nature, heritage and culture, Chinaillon is an ideal place to explore the mountains in a different way, on foot or on snowshoes, depending on the season.
