Incredibly beautiful view!

In my opinion, one of the most beautiful views you can have on Mont Blanc. The turquoise water of the lake and the white and blue Mont Blanc fill me with awe and peace.

Unfortunately, due to French national park rules, dogs are not allowed to cross the trail - not even if they are on a leash. Camping is also prohibited.
