Picturesque Chalet du Lac is a classic mountain chalet set beside a gleaming lake below Mount Mirantin. You'll find it just off the main trail from Arêches to the Pas de l’Ane. Over the summer months, if the shepherd's about, you can buy coffee and crêpes from the door.
Recommended stop in a pleasant setting at the lake chalet to taste the grataron, local goat's cheese, while discussing the ecosystem with the very friendly producers.
