Hiking at the mountain
Many options to discover
From May 16 2026 to November 08 2026
Are you looking to connect with nature? You enjoy outdoor activities on beautiful summer days? Mont SUTTON offers a variety of mountain hiking experiences that are sure to delight all adventure enthusiasts.
1. The hike with the chairlift ride
This shortened hike is perfect for families or anyone who wants to enjoy the view.
For this one, several combinations are possible: you can either take the chairlift ride up, down or for the round-trip (offered as of June 21nd).
The chairlift ride gives you quick access to the observation point at the top of the Chalet Alt.680m, from where you can then continue your ascent by hiking to the summit Alt.840m and back down by the ski slopes or by chairlift ride.
Some people do their cardio by climbing to one of the summits and then enjoy the descent by chairlift with their feet in the air.
Also, be sure to explore our new Adventure Path at an elevation of 680 meters to enjoy a new journey. And if you want to make the outing more entertaining with the family, check out our new Nature’s Hunt and Seek at the top of the chairlift. Having with you the BioKit of the massif des monts Sutton (to take at your arrival or to print home), you will find fun activities to guide you in the discovery of the local flora and fauna. Finally, take advantage of this experience to search the different sculptures of local artists along the slopes!
