Hiking
The abandoned GrandRaye mountain pasture, at 2,352m, is a place suspended in time, where the last stone huts seem to guard pearls of alpine stories now forgotten.
Surrounded by high-altitude meadows and framed by the surrounding peaks, this remote corner tells with sobriety how hard and at the same time intimate the life of the shepherds who once grazed up here was.
