Description

Starting from the Refuge de la Lavey, carry on up the Vallon de la Muande and then take the path up towards the Tete des Fétoules.

At 2249 m, Lac des Fétoules is a small mountain lake just the way we like them! Set on a small grassy plateau, the view over the valley and the Écrins glaciers is magical. A great hike to do with an overnight stay at the Lavey refuge for families who want to experience a real immersion in the heart of the Oisans mountains and the Parc des Écrins.
