A breathtaking natural sight in Haute-Savoie, classified as a National Heritage Site by the Chablais Geopark!
Classified as a Chablais Geopark National Heritage Site, the Gorges du Pont du Diable is one of Haute-Savoie's must-see attractions. A natural curiosity with a breathtaking spectacle, it begins by crossing a forest of beech trees to arrive 70 m and a few steps below at the entrance to the gorges. An impressive gorge, partly underground, carved out by the Dranse de Morzine and traversed by ramps or stairways anchored in the rock. The Dranse flows 50 m beneath our feet, at the bottom of a veritable chasm... A breathtaking spectacle! The force of the torrent's whirlpools has created a work of art of magnificent colors, sculpted shapes and giant cauldrons. The highlight of the show is the Pont du Diable (Devil's Bridge): following a huge landslide that blocked the site, an imposing boulder stabilized itself more than 30 m above the torrent, creating a kind of arch. A tip from the Futé: a visit around 10 a.m. is the most spectacular, with the sun's rays magnifying and making all the colors of the gorge sparkle. Perfectly maintained and secure, the site and its surroundings offer the best conditions for enjoying an open-air spectacle. The "Pas du Diable" (Devil's Step) is a real glass masterpiece for thrills and spills! Souvenir store and top-quality local produce! Tip: the QR code provides a text translated into several languages, which can be downloaded from the gorges website.

Explications précieuses et détaillées du guide. Un passionné qui apprécie de transmettre son savoir et n'est pas avare en anecdotes.
Le personnel était très sympathique et répondait volontiers aux questions des visiteurs.
Par contre, nous avons trouvé le tarif exorbitant pour ce lieu naturel, certes aménagé avec des passerelles en bois et des panneaux explicatifs, mais sans installation particulière qui justifierait 18€ par adulte et 14€ par enfant, d'autant plus que la traversée des gorges elles-mêmes est assez rapide (environ 30mn , le reste étant consacré à la descente et la remontée vers le site).
Bien à vous,
The best at La Vernaz and around

L’entretien des infrastructures est essentiel, mais le tarif me semble légèrement excessif.
Cela dit, nous avons passé un bon moment, et le personnel était sympathique.
