Panoramic tour of the Croix de Chamrousse

Departure : Croix de Chamrousse (2250m).
Easy access via the Croix gondola: Croix loop (picnic area and monumental cross) > Grenoble loop (rooftop) > Oisans path (lookout) and Belledonne loop (himalayan footbridge and lookout).

A walk at the top of the resort which offers a 360° view on the mountains and the city of Grenoble: belvederes with exceptional views on the surrounding massifs (Chartreuse, Vercors, Oisans and Belledonne), panoramic orientation tables and geological panels.

But also a free game "Chamrousse Explor games" (caution, the game starts at the bottom of the resort at the House of Heritage and Environment in Chamrousse 1650 - Recoin) and always the must-see restaurant of La Croix for a gourmet break.
