Bisse des ravines

Description

Easily accessible from the Raclett’House restaurant in Bruson (approx. 1,000 m), this loop trail through flower-filled meadows and larch forests follows the route of the Bisse des Ravines, an ancient irrigation canal built in the early 19th century, abandoned in 1942 and then restored in 2013. The gently sloping trail leads to its water intake at 1,300 m, where a waterfall cascades beneath the gaze of a wolf carved in wood. Ideal for families during the summer months, the walk (approx. 2 hours) offers views of Bruson’s typical barns and highlights the local hydraulic heritage.
