Description
Experience art, nature and gardens in the Mont Blanc region: discovery walks, panoramic terrace, plant-based cuisine.
Located in the village of Plateau d'Assy in the commune of Passy, 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, playful and educational stroll overlooking an exceptional panorama of the Mont-Blanc massif.
Accessible to all, the Jardin des Cimes can be enjoyed by individuals, groups or families. Allow one hour for a self-guided tour, following a trail of some twenty spaces and gardens. An accompanying booklet with quizzes and coloring pages is available for children. Animations are also offered throughout the season in the gardens or on the large terrace. In the same spirit, the "Café du Jardin" store and restaurant complete the richness of this unique place in the Mont Blanc region.
