ALPINE FLORA & GARDEN HOLIDAYS |
| |
A
typical week could include the following:
|
|
| |
1. |
From Morzine we take the
Super Morzine gondola and chairlift high up into the mountains
at an altitude of 1,800m. From here we take an easy route down
alpine meadows and forest trails to the beautiful ancient goat
village of Les Lindarets. There is time to explore the village
before moving on to Lake Montriond via the impressive Ardent falls.
We have a picnic lunch by Lake Montriond next to a safe swimming
area. The afternoon is spent leisurely by the lake before returning
to Morzine for dinner.

2. |
We take the spectacular mountain crossing
from Morzine to the listed village of Samoëns, where we visit
the famous alpine gardens. From here a short drive takes us to
the spectacular Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval national park where we
spend the afternoon on an easy guided walk through some of the
most spectacular scenery and representative flora of the medium
and high Alps.

3. |
Today we visit the medieval
walled village of Yvoire on the shores of Lake Geneva. Here you will
find a poetic garden created on the former site of the walled castle
kitchen garden, a maze with the theme of the 5 senses and a cloister
garden of medicinal and aromatic plants, old roses and espaliered
fruit trees. |
