Outing around the Rocher du Glaisy

This oratory is dedicated to St Mark, the evangelist and bishop of Alexandria. A painting of St Mark used to hang inside, but it had to be removed from the oratory as it was too damaged.Do have a glimpse inside though, to see a statue with a crook. This depicts Bernard of Monjoux, the patron of Hauteville village, and was installed in this oratory when Hauteville Chapel closed permanently.

It's well worth setting aside some time to admire the breathtaking view over the top part of Mont Blanc and the chain of mountains bordering Aosta Valley.

This is a unique natural site for climbing enthusiasts. It has 230 routes laid out for all levels, amidst unspoilt natural surroundings. You can also bring a picnic and head out for walks !

This is a wonderful spot for enjoying a stunning view over Notre-Dame-du-Pré village with, in the background, the mountain ranges of La Lauzière to the west and Mont Blanc to the north.

Soak up the refreshing atmosphere of Lachail waterfall. The water that flows here from Le Nant Gelé stream is sometimes turbulent: on 6 August 2018 it broke its banks, entirely destroying the bridge, rebuilt recently.

The Baroque-style church in Notre-Dame-du-Pré was rebuilt in 1647, changing the way it faced. It boasts the original feature of being "almost square" in shape.Open daily: step inside to admire an altarpiece sculpted by Pierre Antoine Marauet after 1847.

During a terrible fire back in 1846, the whole of the top part of the municipality was engulfed in the flames. Three people died. The first building below the oven belonged to Marie Revet. On seeing a strong wind blowing the flames towards her house, she ran to fetch the finest of her cows, took it right up to where the fire was raging and vowed to sell the cow if her house was spared and to put the proceeds towards building an oratory to St Agatha. Straightaway the wind changed direction and pushed the flames back to the heart of the fire. True to her word, Marie had an oratory built that can still be seen to this day in the village centre.

On the first weekend of August, an annual traditional fête is held here.
