The group of hamlets of Bellentre includes Montchavin and Les Coches on the left bank of the Isère. The Vanoise Express/Chanton snowshoe hike starts from Les Coches or Montchavin; it leads through a larch forest and offers views of the valley, Mont Blanc and the Beaufortain Massif.
Booking a hotel for your stay in Bellentre is an essential part of planning your trip.
Trails and nature
Bellentre lies on the GR5 long-distance hiking trail and maintains its hiking paths for summer tourism. The Balcons de Tarentaise cycling loop passes through the village of Bellentre via a detour.
The 4,000-year-old Lac Noir peat bog is located near Montchavin. Information panels at the peat bog explain its formation, development and some of the flora found there.
Culture and history
A walking route through Montchavin, a hamlet of Bellentre, passes carved balconies, the Sainte-Agathe Chapel and farm animals. Montchavin has preserved its Savoyard village character, with chalets clad in wood and stone, a working farm, a chapel and a car-free village centre.
The present-day Sainte-Agathe Chapel in Montchavin was built in 1988 on the site of an old mill. The small religious chapel of Saint-Clair is located in the authentic lanes of Montorlin.
The first historical references to the Notre-Dame-de-la-Compassion Chapel in Bellentre date back to 1634. The exterior of the Saint-André Church in Bellentre indicates Romanesque origins.
The central painting of the main altarpiece in the Saint-André Church in Bellentre depicts the martyrdom of Saint Andrew and was created by Pignol in 1716. The pulpit in the same church was carved by Joseph-Marie Martel in 1765.
The Saint Joseph et Saint Pierre Chapel in Gothard is first documented in 1732. The Notre Dame des Ermites Chapel in Le Crey is first documented in 1773.
