Located on the outskirts of town, the Calvaire is the only religious trail in France to be listed as a European Sacred Mount and Historic Monument. Built between 1840 and 1878, the site consists of 15 chapels, 40 religious sculptures and 80 painted frescoes. Make it to the top of the trail for gorgeous view of the upper Arly Valley and the Mont-Blanc. Guided tours are available.
