Presentation

This thematic trail allows you to discover the sector of the "Tailleurs de Pierre". Most of the brackets, window frames, stair treads, paving stones that you can see while walking in the streets of Chamonix come from this quarry.

From the village of Les Bois, pass in front of the Biathlon shooting range, cross the Arveyron and head towards the Norway sector. Follow the markings of the thematic trail.
