Saint-Oyen plan puitz

If you want to explore the beauty of Saint-Oyen with either hiking boots or snowshoes Plan Puitz is for you: it is an enchanting trail with numerous surprises!
First, you need to drive to Saint Rhemy en Bosses, the last commune before the Swiss border, and leave it in the small parking lot before the village.
Crossing a carriage road, you enter the forest to the Morguinaz chalets.
Continuing westward, the trail leads to a farm road, where a fork reveals an exciting discovery: Plan Puitz, with its striking cave fortifications.
The Plan Puitz site, in fact, has inside it galleries (created for military reasons) in which cannons were positioned.
A visit to the tunnels (to be done carefully only under safe conditions) allows you to see how the location could very well control the valley that descends from the Great St. Bernard Pass.
