    As the fascinating blue waters of the Plan d'Amont lake (upstream of the
    dam) wink at you, Râteau d'Aussois and Pointe de l'Échelle watch over you,
    unphased, lost in contemplation.
    Why stop now when things are going so well? Keep going till you get to the
    Fournache torrent and listen carefully... Can you hear that whistle, echoing
    through the valley? That's Lady Marmot, announcing your arrival to the rest
    of her crew.
    Adventure is calling you and you feel like spending a night at La Fournache
    refuge.
    Or maybe at the Plan Sec refuge. It could be a good idea to start with a
    meal there, so as to scout out the place. Just imagine waking up amid those
    remote alpine pastures and imposing rocky mountains!
    But, for now, you can just settle down on the soft grassy slopes and take your
    time lazing in the sunshine, as you're returning via the chairlifts.

    Tips and suggestions

    2/ Using GPX tracks As hazards may occur at any time on the routes, the GPX tracks provided are not contractual. They are given for information only. Riders use them at their own risk, depending on their level of technological proficiency and their understanding of the terrain.
