Gorges de la Diosaz
A deep, narrow gorge beside the village of Servoz, where wooden walkways cling to the rock walls between waterfalls and rapids. It has been a tourist attraction since 1875.
The Gorges de la Diosaz lie at Servoz, about 12 km downstream from Chamonix. The walkways are built along the gorge walls, passing multi-tiered waterfalls, deep pools and suspended footbridges, with the roar of water all around. It stays cool in summer, making it a good choice on rainy days or for escaping the heat. The round trip takes about 1.5 hours. Admission is about €8–10. Some sections have steps, so children need supervision. Take the Chamonix Valley train to Servoz station, then walk about 15 minutes.
