A Visit to the Mountain Pastures – Meeting a Herd and Its Mountain Dogs

Welcome to the mountain pasture! Audrey welcomes you to her workplace to talk with you about her job and introduce you to her herd. A special opportunity to learn about guard dogs—the famous PATOUS—and meet them. You’ll be accompanied throughout the morning by Félix, a mountain ranger from the Giffre region, who will explain how to interact with them properly. We’ll meet at the mountain parking lot, then take a 1.5-hour hike to reach the sheepfold, where Audrey will be waiting for us. Be sure to bring cash, as Audrey runs a refreshment stand there. Please note that the activity will not begin until we reach the mountain pasture; the ascent and descent are at your own risk.
