Summer hike Plan des Cavalles par le Téléphérique

Take 1500 meters of altitude in a few minutes thanks to the cable cars and go to the discovery of the Plan des Cavalles. 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 Cavalles, 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 Rousse and Fare)

TO SEE ON THE COURSE: Very beautiful sight on the massif of Belledonne, on the Rissiou and Grand Galbert summits.

It is possible to reach the summit of the Aiguillettes de Vaujany and descend via the Col du Sabot (recommended route, as descending via the Col du Couard is only suitable for very experienced walkers comfortable with ledges and sections requiring handrails).

The path is not always visible since it is traced on a stony plateau. Do not undertake this hike in foggy weather.

Departure at the Vaujany cable car station. Take the first lift Alpette section 2100 m then second section Domes des Petites Rousses 2800 m. Take the trail on the plateau and along the Middle Lakes towards Lac de la Fare.
Return by the same route.
