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.

Lugar muy bien conservado y hermoso, la entrada sale 18€ y vale la pena. Se recorre en aproximadamente 40 minutos, 1 hora y recomiendo ir cómodos ya que tiene muchas escaleras

Passez votre chemin et économisez 18€. Les gorges n'ont rien de grandiose comparées aux gorges du Fier par exemple et, si on enlève le temps d'accès, la visite dure 20mn… attrape touristes !!!
