Description of the route
Easy walk that from Grand-Haury hamlet, above Arvier, reaches Les Combes village in Introd municipality.
By car, after Arvier’s church, follow the signs first for La Crête, then for Verney, Petit-Haury and finally Grand-Haury hamlets (10-minute drive).
The itinerary (signpost n.7) starts on the left of the parking lot at the beginning of Grand-Haury hamlet and goes up in the woods until reaching Les Combes hamlet, holiday destination of Pope John Paul II.
Grand-Haury hamlet is characterized by the typical position of its houses built around the most important places of the traditional village: the chapel, the mil and the oven, recently restored.
Also worth mentioning is the chapel dedicated to Saint Mary Magdalene, dating back to 1473.
