You'll pass near the Abbey of Abondance (open daily during the summer season). You'll then reach the Maison du Fromage Abondance, where you can take a break to discover how Abondance cheese is made and the different cheeses of Savoie through an exhibition (days and opening times available from the tourist information office).
