Summer hike : Plan des Cavalles par le Téléphérique
IGN cards
Description
Take 1500 meters of altitude in a few minutes thanks to the cable cars and go to the discovery of the Plan des Cavales. A nature peeled at the mercy of the vagaries of time.
It is a marked trail sometimes difficult to follow, because weather-dependent. He goes through the Plan des Cavales, a balcony suspended at the foot of the Pic de l'Etendard. From the largest to the smallest water point, it is dotted with streams and lakes (La Jasse, Balme Rouse and Fare)
TO SEE ON THE COURSE: Very beautiful sight on the massif of Belledonne, Rissiou and Cornillon.
