No. 28 Educational Path of the Lake

Champex-Lac

This charming family route around Lake Champex and on the heights of the resort is also enhanced with educational panels about the local fauna and flora.

At the entrance of the village, southeast side towards the Splendide hotel, take the path that goes up into the forest.

You will then reach the Alpine Garden where a visit is well worth it. The path then crosses the road and reaches the lake.

Walk around the lake area and end your route on one of the sunny terraces.
