    Hiking

    The Col du Grand Fond (2671 m) is a fairly easy pass at Beaufortain. North side access through a large debris and block dump from the Combe de la Nueva. South side, partly overhanging slope above the Lac de Presset, not far from the Refuge de Presset.
    View to Mont Blanc and south to the massifs of Ecrins to Vanoise.
