How to get there

Nus highway exit. Enter town and take the road for Saint-Barthélemy. Continue until the Lignan hamlet 1633 m.

A well-known location with mountaineering skiers since part of the “Fillietroz trophy” circuit. The scenery is fantastic with great sun exposure. A trip to the regional astronomy observatory located in Lignan is highly recommended.
