Hiking - Loop of Lac Blanc
Easy loop offering exceptional views of the Dent Parrachée, the Vanoise glaciers and plunging perspectives over the gorges of Doron de Termignon.
Clear skies, beautiful morning. The trail on the slope rises gently towards Lac Blanc, the resounding and rhythmic song of the partridges accompanying me. Once at the lake, I sit down. The magic of the first rays of the sun will soon shine on the summit of the Parrachée. Its artful face is revealed little by little. I’ll have to wait a while for the sun to warm my back but everything is set and the day can start! Laurent Perier-Muzet, Vanoise National Park ranger
From Coétet car park, take the trail in the direction of Lac Blanc walking alongside the slope. Once you arrive at Lac Blanc, you can either walk around it (in about 1/2 hour), or to go directly to the Refuge du Lac Blanc to take the track to the Bellecombe car park. Then follow the signs to the hamlet of Chavière. The path descends gently to the Coêtet car park.
Don’t leave the path
