Description
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.
