As the trails gradually open up and the snow melts to make way for the green pastures of Saint-Gervais Mont-Blanc, hiking is the ideal way to clear your head in the mountains and enjoy breathtaking scenery!
In spring, crocuses are the first flowers to appear after the snow has melted, heralding the return of fine weather. This show is a must for lovers of hiking and wide-open spaces. Whatever your level, there are a number of signposted hikes that will enable you to make the most of spring, such as the hamlet of Miage from La Gruvaz or Le Champel, the chalets du Truc, or Porcherey from Saint-Nicolas de Véroce. For families and those looking for a gentle stroll, a simple trip around Lac du Vivier will give you a beautiful view of the Dômes de Miage.
Please note that not all hiking itineraries are accessible at this time of year, and it’ s advisable to check with the Tourist Office before embarking on a hike if you don’t know where the path is.
