트레일 정보
From the upper station of the Tracouet gondola above Haute-Nendaz, you first descend to the Lac Noir mountain lake and then towards the Cabane Balavaux hut. The trail continues over an Alpine meadow where you will find the imposing larches. There are more than 250 larch trees here that are between 300 and 1,000 years old. A special wooden walkway has been constructed to allow visitors to marvel at the “King of Balavaux” up close. With a circumference of 11.8m, this evergreen is known as the mightiest larch in Europe.
After this impressive encounter, the hiking trail continues to the Chalet des Alpes restaurant. A narrow path then leads to the Bisse de Saxon, the longest in Valais. Passing through the forest, it continues to the Pra da Dzeu clearing, an idyllic place that enchants hikers with its peaceful atmosphere and magnificent views. The trail then leads back to Haute-Nendaz, taking in the Gouille d’Ouché pond and the pretty mountain chapel at Les Rairettes.
