Arveyron River Trail

Highlight • Trail

The trail networks around the Bois de Bouchet are perfect for running, mountain biking or easy hiking - they run alongside the river and are almost flat. You can make several loops: towards Souces, towards the white desert, or towards Lavancher. Near here is the PGHM helicopter base - great for little ones (and grown-ups!) To watch them land and take off.

Arveyron Spring

Highlight • Other

The source of the Arveyron, located at the foot of the Bossons glacier, near Chamonix, is a wild and impressive place of nature. Accessible by a short hike, this source springs directly from the ice, fed by the meltwater of the glacier.
