A family hike to delight the eyes of young and old alike.

Description

Turn right towards the Romanche, then head upstream, staying on the trail.
At the parking lot at the bottom of the Gravière, level with the Ecrins National Park signs, turn left to return to the lake.
There are two possible routes here, either the one below, which is wider and flatter. Alternatively, take the path on your right, which is finer and more undulating as you gain height on the south-facing slope.
Follow the path to the lake and parking lot.
