Located on the colder side of the Aiguilles Rouges and at the foot of the vast Mont Buet, the Vallée de Bérard is a peaceful and secluded haven away from the hustle and bustle of the Chamonix Valley.
The valley extends to the Aiguille Rouge nature reserve and is home to a wide variety of flora and fauna, such as ibexes and chamois. This area is home to these animals, be sure to take care of them!

A small, warm refuge, perfect for a break on the way to the Col de Salenton or Mont Buet. The fruit tarts are highly recommended!

Here, we hike following this pretty torrent whose origin is the melting of the Bérard glacier. It is a very pleasant bucolic section!
