Grand Maclu, Petit Maclu and Ilay Lakes

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

Beautiful hiking trail, well-maintained path. The area between Grand/Petit lac Maclu and Lac d'Ilay is currently (August 2022) closed to the public (nature reserve). The route on the west side of Lac d'Ilay is unfortunately less attractive.
