The third in the Explorer Termignon à pied network, you'll hike along a sporty trail lined with animals that won't run away.... ETAP 3 will take you over the mountain spur that dominates the village, with everything you need at the top to enjoy the view.

Description

Two slopes, two atmospheres!
On the south-eastern slope, Scots pines have colonized the terraced fields that still thrived in the 20th century, and whose remnants you can still make out.
On the north-western slope, among the fir and spruce trees, you can spot, if you have a good eye, the reminders of Termignon's former ski area... And don't forget to stop off at the Coin fountain, carved out of the rock in the 19th century. Nearby lies one of the forest animals that Christophe Chappellaz carved out of wood to decorate the trail.

In winter, remember to share the space with other Nordic area users, and check snow conditions with the Tourist Office.
