    Expert hike. Very good fitness required. Mostly accessible paths. Sure-footedness required.

    Nice little climb after a quiet start from PELLAUD along the right bank of the torrent to the Bénévolo refuge.
    After this refuge there are two trails to reach the two lakes the longest is the more rural (so the one on the left with your back to the refuge) the one on the right is a little sharp, a little too much for children, especially downhill, but the show at the top is superb. Lots of waterfalls along the way.

      Very easy. This is a starting point for the sequel.

        It is a fairly easy retreat to reach at the end of a beautiful valley. The retreat itself is in a nice area. Good food and, also, a superb apple pie.
