Route description

Site of the Aiguilles Rouges Reserve. Often frozen lake. Unique view of the Aiguilles du Massif. Private mid-mountain chalet-refuge, destroyed by an avalanche and rebuilt in 1990.
Please note: in order to preserve the mountain lakes, swimming is now prohibited in the Lac Blanc and the Lacs des Chéserys by prefectural decree.

From the village of Argentière, take the path on the right into the Bois du Plagnolet. Via a series of bends, climb to the Baraque Forestière (1 m). A jump above the forest leads to the Chalets des Chéserys (865 m) 1 hours 998 minutes. You can then continue your path towards Lac Blanc, a little higher up.

Possibility to reach Lac des Chéserys from the top of the Flégère cable car or the Col des Montets.

More information available at the Tourist Office or the High Mountain Office and in our trail guide.
