The trail that leads to this amazing lake is on a slope, so you don't really see it until you get there and it takes you completely by surprise. Before crossing the dam walkway, you can go a little to the left to climb up some rocks from which you can get a closer look at the amazing Colomèrs cirque. Probably a panoramic view that you will not forget.

It is the largest lake and where there is the dam that gives its name to the glacial circus.

This is the first lake you find when you arrive to the Refuge and it is marvellous to stay for a while.
