Chamrousse’s new Himalayan footbridge, a must for all your Himalayan sensations!
A suspension bridge over the Casserousse couloir, accessible from La Croix in summer, and in winter (weather permitting).

Casserousse Himalayan footbridge in figures: 130 m long, 0.9 m wide and 25 m high, with a maximum gradient of 9.5%.
