After the ascent from the Refuge des Mottets towards the Col de la Seigne (2516 m), Following the route of the 'Tour du Mont Blanc' (TMB) a spectacular panorama of the entire 'Des Glacieres' valley awaits us. The ascent is not very hard but requires constant effort and the crossing of streams flowing down from the melting snowfields.
