    Attention: detour 3A has only one intact bridge and the 2nd bridge over a torrent gorge is broken. This means that the return from Rifugio Savoia on Route 9 ends in a dead end.

      Long hike, not suitable for everyone. Hat and glasses recommended.

        This is a beautiful plateau that you reach after a tough climb of 450 meters from Le Pont (Le Breuil). There are still several pastoral settlements (now abandoned) on this plateau.
