Hiking trails

Discover our hiking trails in Bonneval sur Arc. You're in the heart of an unspoilt natural area, ideal for family walks to meet the marmots (you'll see and hear them whistling around the village, or along the path to the hamlet of Ecot), for day hikes or multi-day treks. In Bonneval sur Arc, exceptional hikes are just around the corner.

High-altitude lakes, glaciers and icebergs

Landscapes from the ends of the earth in the heart of the Alps

Contemplate the high-altitude lakes along the balcony trail to the Carro refuge, admire the glaciers overlooking the paths, enjoy the incredible panorama at the Cirque des Evettes and continue to the Grand Méan glacier. It's not the climb that will take your breath away, but the spectacle of this glacier that ends in a cliff plunging into a lake where icebergs float... A hike worthy of the great expeditions to the ends of the earth. Ibex are also often seen in this area in summer. Memories for life!
