Home sweet home... an exceptional playground!

The hike to the Aiguille de la Grande Sassière (a 3,751 m high mountain in the Graian Alps) is easy. The west and east of this part of the Alps form the watershed between the Rhône (Isère) and Po (Dora Baltea) rivers, which also forms the border between France and Italy. Climbing to the summit also offers a unique opportunity to see a glacier and two glacial lakes. If you're in the area, don't miss this breathtakingly scenic hike in the Vanoise National Park!

Grattaleu Lake is located just below a hill, behind the refuge. Overlooked by the Aiguille des Aimes and the Pointe du Chardonnet, the lake invites you to take a break before turning around to return to Tignes. Grattaleu Lake is one of the 130 high-altitude lakes in the Vanoise massif. Frozen in ice for nearly six months a year, only a few invertebrates live there.

Lac créé par un petit barrage, accessible près du parking.

Last year we left Mont Bochor to reach the Barmettes refuge and climb to Lac des Vaches. As the return was on foot to Pralognan we did not go any higher. Last week we took the Genepy chairlift then Lac des Vaches then Lac Long and stopped at the refuge of the Col de la Vanoise. Two or three passages in the snow (~45 min). Nice walk, the climb after the lake seemed easier to me than the first part.

The region is very beautiful and has a lot to see.

Below the Col du Palet, Lake Garattaleu is a gem. At 2,517 meters above sea level, its verdigris colors reflect the greenery that proliferates between the great mountains of the Vanoise.
