Les Crestelles

Take a moment to relax. The beauty of this superb landscape is enough in itself. However, if you'd like to find out more, there's a landscape interpretation table available for all to use.

The view from Les Crestelles offers a foreground marked by the steep slope of the valley. In the background, the valley floor is characterised by its alluvial plain and the village in the hollow of a particularly pronounced meander. This is followed by the opposite slope, with its alternating deciduous and coniferous trees, offering a remarkable palette of colours throughout the year. Finally, in the background (to the left of the viewpoint), the calmer landscape of the grassy plateau begins.
