The area around Arêches-Beaufort is full of hiking trails of all lengths and difficulties. Proximity loops such as "The Envers loop" in Arêches or "Les Curtillets" in Beaufort offer beautiful, easy and accessible options from the villages for short walks of just a few hours.
Thanks to the chairlifts, you will gain altitude very easily without effort, and will have access to breathtaking panoramas while maintaining a very modest elevation gain for your hikes. The "Lac Tournant" at the start of the Grand Mont chairlift is a must in the sector. In Planay, the "Lac Brassa" offers a sumptuous view of the Mont-Blanc massif and the Pierra Menta.
Alternative to chairlifts, natural shuttles, free all summer, allow you to connect hiking starting points on Lake Saint-Guérin, Arêches and Beaufort without worrying about finding your vehicle or parking it.
