Allied to the canons to rescue travellers, the Saint-Bernard dogs originated at the Hospice du Grand-St-Bernard, at an altitude of 2500m. Get to know the Saint Bernards on a 45-minute walk through the forest, in an enchanting winter setting at Champex-Lac. This destination is set in a magnificent Alpine panorama.
The activity takes place in the company of three Saint Bernards, which you can take turns holding on a lead.
