Les Pahiers Hike
Table of contents
The Les Pahiers Hike is a fun little adventure in Crans Montana that largely passes through the forest, but offers some views of the surrounding landscape. It is quite flat and presents no difficulties, taking you to a nature area that has been set up near the Briesses pond. This place is dotted with small ponds that will allow you to get to know the fauna and flora of the wetlands found at an altitude of 1,400.
Route Description for Les Pahiers Hike
Setting out from the trailhead next to Etang de la Moubra, you will make your way into the forest and follow the path to the southwest. Take your time to enjoy the easy-going nature of this walk and the peaceful woodland surroundings.
Eventually, the trail will turn back toward the northeast and climb slightly uphill, passing by a small pond and continuing through the forest until you arrive back at the starting point of the walk.
