Chamonix Hike - Visit dinosaur foot prints

Chamonix Hike -  Visit dinosaur foot prints

Dinosaurs roamed the earth between 230 and 65 million years ago. Join us for a hike to visit the high plateau above Lac d'Emosson to see the evidence of Eight Hundred Dinosaur footprints residing at an altitude of 2400m, in the Vieux-Emosson valley on the French-Swiss border.

Come as a family or as a participant in our mentor program and bring your picnic as once we reach the spot we will have a guided visit. Eight Hundred Dinosaur footprints now reside at an altitude of 2400m, in the Vieux-Emosson valley on the French-Swiss border.

This location designated a Protected Site of Special Interest in November 1983 after it was discovered in 1976 by the French geologist, D. Bronner but the footprints are likely are disappear in the next half century due to erosion, so don’t wait too long to sign- up!

Allow 5 hours for a detailed visit and wear good hiking shoes.
