Presentation

Follow the medallions decorated with elephants. Pass through the narrow streets and alleys, discover the heritage of Chambéry and stroll along without forgetting to look up.

Have you noticed these golden elephants lining the cobblestones of the historic centre? Follow them, they'll be your guides! From squares to town houses, passing by the cathedral and the Elephant fountain, you'll follow medieval alleys and "traboules", discovering the historic city at your own pace.

New for 2022: the route will be extended to include the Faubourg Montmélian.
