Description
This hike below the Pointe d'Orchex offers beautiful panoramas of the Arve valley, the Môle and the Bargy.
As you stroll through the heights of Thyez, come and discover Mont Orchez and its rich natural heritage.
Classified as a Natural Area of Fauna and Flora Interest, Mont Orchez is at the crossroads of several territories. Its rocky and scree areas make it ideal for many remarkable and protected plant species, such as the Orange Lily.
Nestled between the Môle and the Giffre massif, this small relief in Chablais offers beautiful views of the Arve valley on its Thylon slope.
