Directions
Following the path between the swimming pool and the river Dranse, you can walk along the river and enjoy the scenery it has to offer. As the path is tarmac you can even take a pushchair if you need to. To do the shorter of the walks take the Decheres bridge over the river (just passed the horse riding centre) and walk back down the other side of the river.
If you were to continue along the path you will follow the field that sits just below Montriond, with the beautiful scenery of the mountains behind, here you can take the bridge and follow the river along the other side. If you would like to do the longest of the routes then continue along the path passing the big field and entering a forest on a path still following the river. You will then pass a football ground and from here you head over the next bridge and walk along the other side of the river.
