Spectacular set of small lagoons of glacial origin is located in a mountainous environment of great beauty. Surrounded by forests and meadows, the Neila Lagoons offer an impressive visual spectacle, especially during the autumn thaw. The viewpoint has an information panel on the flora and fauna of the area.

A group of lakes formed in glacial cirques surrounded by peaks approximately 2,000 meters high. Between 1969 and 1972, a project was developed to transform the glacial complex for tourism and intensive fishing. Some of the consequences of this project included the alteration of moraines, land clearing, the creation of dams, and the construction of roads.
