On your way back, before reaching the initial trail, you will cross a bridge over the Ponturin that you follow from the start. This watercourse flows from the Lac de la Plagne before it flows into the Isère at Landry. At this point, the stream reaches the torrent, tunnelling under the boulders in dry periods before resurging lower down, and this is what has earned this place its name “Pertes du Ponturin”.
