Guided tour of the Fort des Salettes, a World Heritage Site, accompanied by guides from Briançon's Heritage Department.
After a 25-minute climb along a stony path, you'll reach the interior of the redoubt designed by Vauban to prevent the enemy from positioning themselves on a hill overlooking the town. It was built between 1709 and 1712. It was transformed into a real fort in the 19th century.

Duration: 2h30

Please bring suitable walking shoes, water and loose clothing.
