Pierrier des Rousses

To the far east of the ski area, this 3.3 kilometre walk over scree terrain

showcases a wild, yet impressive, landscape in an area shaped by an

enormous landslide that took place in 1946. A few larch trees, copses

and rhododendrons have since made this place their home. You will

see many traces of mountain hares, Alpine ibex, chamois, foxes, and

stoats. In the spring, you may even catch a glimpse of the famous ring

ouzel, an extremely rare and protected bird. Note: The route could be

made more difficult by heavy snowfall and poor visibility. It is strongly

advised that you avoid this route in bad weather.
