Meet the Marmots - Family Walk

Description

Go and discover the marmots. It is nice to see these rodents living in high altitude, but you have to know where you can find them! And you are lucky : a whole colony has chosen to set up in our pastures!

NEW ! In 2018, you can take the Blache chairlift to come from the center of the resort to the marmot's home !

It´s a pleasure to see these lovely rodents enjoying the summer sun!
A few minutes walk from the station, after a short but difficult climb in the woods, you reach a mountain where a colony of marmots have settled!
Photographers and naturalists should be warned to remain silent to increase your chance of seing marmots playing!

Please be aware of not feeding the marmots for their stomach is very delicate and they aren't used to eat sweets or chocolate.

Shall we meet at wonderland?
