Le Grand-Bornand
An outing for strong hikers that includes several ascents and descents. The itinerary almost always stays “up high;” enjoy wide open spaces, incredible panoramic views of the surrounding mountains, and Lessy Lake located in the heart of a beautiful alpine pasture.
Swimming at Lake Lessy is strictly forbidden! An altitude lake has a very fragile ecosystem that should not be disturbed.
From 01/06 to 15/11.
