Hiking - Vallon Lake

Cut out for experienced walkers, the ascent towards Vallon Lake touches the limit of the heart of the Park. Here, the geological diversity and the view of the massifs give an informative insight in to the formation of the Alps. 

This beautiful large scale itinerary leads from the bottom of the valley to the rocky cirque which reaches up to 3000 m. Minerals are omnipresent and the surrounding summits hide our view of the clouds which can arrive from the South: Be careful of the weather, because you can be surprised by storms up there-haut, the descent will be eventful!

There is the possibility of joining the trail (although it is difficult) by car but there is sometimes a problem to find parking (at least a 1h of walk).
