Val Thorens

Montée en alpage Chez Pépé Nicolas

From Saint-Martin, the herds leave the village to reach the mountain pastures 6 km further up between Les Menuires and Val Thorens.

The shepherds pass through several villages in the Vallée des Belleville: Saint-Martin-de-Belleville, Saint-Marcel, Praranger and le Bettaix.

A unique day out, fun and accessible to all.

The herd will pass through the villages of St Marcel, Praranger, Bettaix (where a small refreshment area will be waiting for you), then the bottom of Les Menuires at Plan de l'eau to arrive at the Chez Pépé Nicolas mountain pasture where a Savoyard meal will be served.
