Grande Cascade de la Doria

The Grande Cascade de la Doria drops 60 meters into a series of rocky basins, with water flowing from an elevation of 400 meters above sea level.

The waterfall forms part of the Doria river system, which has shaped the landscape of the Savoie Mont Blanc region through centuries of continuous water flow.

Local residents maintain walking paths near the cascade, enabling visitors to experience the natural water formations that characterize the French Alps region.

The waterfall remains accessible from May 1st to October 30th, with free entry and designated parking areas for visitors exploring the natural formation.

During spring snowmelt, the cascade reaches its maximum flow rate, creating powerful water columns that generate distinct sounds throughout the surrounding valley.
