The gypsum tuffs of Tovières

Tignes le Lac (à g.) et le Val Claret (à dr.).
Credit : PNV - BALAIS Christian

Description

Above the Lac de Tignes, you can see a geological phenomenon particular to the Vanoise - funnels of gypsum dissolution. These shiny-grey rocks were formed more than 200 million years ago. Malleable and soluble, they form surprising shapes and reliefs over time.
