Granite
2 results70 000 years ago began the last glaciation called "Würm". All glaciers of the Mont-Blanc massif met and formed the wide Arve glacier which covered the whole valley. It carried a lot of granite blocks from the heart of the Mont-Blanc massif and left behind the moraines of Fayet, Domancy and Combloux while retreating.

Pathway "the story of the granite men"
The path (approximately 1km long) is located at the entrance of Combloux when you come from Sallanches. It goes along a forest where you will still find granite carried and left by glaciers 15 000 years ago.
