Cirque du Bout du Monde, Glacial cirque in Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval, Haute-Savoie, France

Cirque du Bout du Monde is a glacial cirque in the Giffre massif above Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval, Haute-Savoie. A broad amphitheatre of grey, grooved rock rises from a green sloping base to a jagged rim, its highest peak left of centre, with a thin waterfall on the right and patches of snow and ice near the top. Its streams form the sources of the Giffre.

Le Bout du Monde is a glacial cirque in the Giffre massif, cut into the limestone above Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval in Haute-Savoie. Its springs feed the Giffre, and the site is listed as natural heritage. The cirque lies close to the better-known Cirque du Fer-à-Cheval, and its waterfalls are strongest during the spring snowmelt.

The name "Bout du Monde" (End of the World) marks how far the valley road and paths reach before the rock walls close in. The cirque lies beside the Fer-à-Cheval cirque, and its waterfalls feed the sources of the Giffre. The site is listed as natural heritage.

This site is reached by hiking trail from the village, a journey that takes several hours depending on your pace. Summer and early autumn offer the best conditions for walking, with dry paths and clear views.

The cirque's waterfalls feed the sources of the Giffre, the river that runs through Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval. The stream rises here at the foot of the rock walls, and the site is listed in the natural heritage register. The thin fall visible on the right of the cliff is one of these outlets.
