Jardin des Cimes
Description
Experience art and gardens in the Mont Blanc region: discovery walks, panoramic terrace, plant-based cuisine.
Located in the village of Passy, in the Plateau d'Assy, near Chamonix in Haute Savoie, the Jardin des Cimes is an invitation to discover different gardens from around the world, nurturing gardens, alpine atmospheres and artistic installations, during a poetic, fun and educational stroll facing an exceptional panorama of the Mont-Blanc massif.
Accessible to all, the Jardin des Cimes is a great place to discover on your own, in a group or with the whole family. Allow an hour for a self-guided tour, following a trail of around twenty areas and gardens. An accompanying booklet with quizzes and colouring books is available for children. There are also events throughout the season in the gardens and on the large terrace. In the same spirit, the "Café du Jardin" shop and restaurant add to the richness of this unique site in the Mont Blanc region.
