This wide, well-preserved valley for mountain agriculture is one of the last alpine valleys without any heavy development or infrastructure.
A great day out in the upper Chavière valley. A typical mountain atmosphere accompanies you along the pastoral route: the whistling of marmots, the clarines and bells of dairy cows (of the Tarine and Abondance breeds, the only ones "qualified" to make Beaufort) and finally the soothing silence of altitude. The Péclet-Polset refuge, built in 1912, is only discovered at the very last moment. Just a stone's throw from the refuge, a visit to Lac Blanc is a must!
