Hiking - Great Loop of the Aiguillon

Hike towards a lake and then a 360° viewpoint over the valley, La Meije, and Les Agneaux.
On the mound at the end of the Aiguillon ridge, a solitary bench invites you to a moment of contemplation. Up there, you can see the whole valley: from the Lautaret Pass to the cliffs below the Emparis plateau. In front of us towers La Meije, and behind us, the peaks of Goléon and Trois Évêchés.
Do not cross the sheep flocks. Presence of livestock guardian dogs.
