PROUD MAN'S THROAT
Narrow, roaring gorges, a prodigious site, both magical and frightening, where you advance on a wooden footbridge.
Not far from Annecy, the Gorges du Fier offer a breathtaking spectacle. A narrow, roaring canyon, a natural site to be explored by walking on a footbridge fixed into the rock 25 metres above the tumultuous waters. Sensations guaranteed on a site that has been open to the public for 156 years. Enora Poizat,3rd generation of operators and guardians of the Gorges, invites us to discover this incredible natural spectacle and the geological curiosities sculpted by erosion. Souvenir store and restaurant. An unusual experience to share with the whole family.
