Hannibal walking tour
Imagine crossing Val Cenis Bramans on the back of an elephant? Finish the tour with a trip to the Verney district and let yourself be transported into the story of Hannibal and his caravan.
Description
The Carthaginian general Hannibal himself is said to have passed through Bramans with his army and elephants. Have you seen the statue that stands at the entrance to the village in tribute to this military epic? You'll find a few discreet traces of his journey in the heart of the sunny plain.
And to add to the pleasure of your walk, enjoy the peace and quiet of the heights of Le Verney.
