Walks around the Val de Tamié
A few examples :
The Val de Tamié site is remarkable for its Cistercian abbey nestling on the slopes of the Tête Noire, and its former military fort. The walk takes place in the valley. It starts from the abbey car park, climbs steeply, descends through undergrowth, visits the Fort de Tamié, offers a magnificent view of Mont Blanc from the Collet de Tamié, and then descends to the Moulin de Tamié.

A short family hike and a visit to Fort de Tamié. Within the walls of the fort, there are tree climbing courses, games for children and walks for all, not forgetting the superb views over Albertville. Rather than taking the car to get to the fort, it's very pleasant to go on foot.

Discover the 6 places indicated on the map provided by Val de Tamié.
Nearly six kilometres of ridge in total! A few vertical sections, around twenty sections secured by cables and, to spice things up, a few aerial sections. A majestic environment, an imposing panorama. A very pretty hike, undoubtedly exceptional, but well worth the effort. Be warned: this hike requires some mountain experience. It should be undertaken in very good weather conditions, on dry, windless ground. The climb is mainly through forest, while the ridge line is virtually treeless.
Warning, very difficult route
This route requires a long and/or intense physical effort, either because of a very significant difference in altitude or distance, or both. In certain situations, there is also the possibility of technical and aerial sections..
