[Previous post: part 5]

The last day of the Summit wrapped up after lunch so we had plenty of time for an afternoon hike. We took the cog train to Rochers-de-Naye, at the top of the mountain. We hiked around the ridge line for some great views. There is a protected area for marmots in Rochers-de-Naye, but we did not see any marmots.

There is also an alpine garden and a hiking trail that loops around the back of one of the small peaks. There were lots of cool flowers, including Pulsatilla alpina (which reminds me of Dr. Seuss’ truffula trees) and Alpine Sea Holly.

There is also a long tunnel through the mountain that comes out at a restaurant with a scenic overlook.
