Are you ready for a high mountain adventure?Discover the Cascade du Rouget towards Samoëns, an ideal destination for nature lovers.
The Rouget waterfall is a waterfall in the Giffre Valley (France) which flows all year round from the Sales torrent upstream and which joins the Giffre des Fonds downstream to form the Petit Giffre in the commune of Sixt- Horseshoe.
It is made up of three jumps: the first two upstream of the road separated by a short flat which constitutes the upstream fall and a last one downstream of the road after a short course of the torrent which constitutes the downstream fall. The upstream fall is around a hundred meters high with a jump halfway up which can be impressive when the snow melts due to the rebound of the water on the stone slab. In case of high flow, splashes of water make the surrounding stones slippery; accidents have already occurred in these dangerous conditions.
It is accessible directly by a small road, which makes it a very popular tourist site despite the deterioration of the surface. It is one of the two referenced sites in the commune with the Fer-à-Cheval cirque. Her nickname is “the queen of the Alps”.
Popular traditions have attributed to it virtues of virility and fertility to such an extent that the elders still offer a bottle of this water to newlyweds, without the qualities of this water having ever been proven. This waterfall was named the most beautiful French waterfall in 2009.
