Traveller tips

When visiting Les Epesses, be sure to pack comfortable walking shoes as there are many scenic trails and paths to explore.

Be respectful of the local customs and traditions, and always greet people with a polite 'Bonjour'. Lastly, be prepared for varying weather conditions and pack accordingly.
