Hiking
Classified Natura2000 and Sensitive Natural Area, the Plateau des Glières is an incredible place. Alpine pastures, mountains, wooden chalets, everything is there! The Plateau des Glières was also a hotbed of resistance during the Second World War. It was then used as a parachuting ground for the Allies.
The Glières Monument, which can be seen from all over the plateau, symbolizes resistance and hope. On the plateau, you will find several restaurants and lodges offering local specialties. A perfect spot for a lunch break with a view!
