The Bossons glacier claims to be the "largest ice fall in Europe." It is certainly the fastest moving glacier (300m/year)and it also reacts very quickly to climate change. Come learn about glaciers at the outdoor exhibit close to the Chalet du Glacier des Bossons.

Why not take a walk to the Argentiere glacier. This walk takes you to a spectacular viewpoint over the ice falls of the Argentiere glacier at 2338m altitude.
