“During the holidays, my sister and I went for a walk in the forest near the Calvaire path. At Creux Saint Jean, there are superb views over the river. You cross a bridge, it’s magical. You can take photos Pinterest-style to capture this moment. I nearly forgot something: as you’ll be near the river, you'll need to wear warm clothing. On the other hand, you’ll get warm from running all over the place to make the most of the scenery and natural surroundings. This walk isn’t very long but it’s a lovely way to get away from it all. I think that’s about it... So enjoy your walk and see you soon in Megève!”
