Variante von Val Thorens nach Meribel
recommended route
Difficulty
easy
15.9 km
3:59 h

Bei der Bergstation des Sesselliftes COL einen Kurzen Aufstieg zum Col de Gebroulaz danach kann man einen der Gipfel noch mttnehmen (Achtung das ist eine Kraxelei). Abfellen und dann über einen wunderschönen Gletscher mit beindruckenden Verwerfungen (Auchtung Spalten!!) in das Tal des "Le Doron des Allues" bis zum Refuge de Saut. von da an wird es etwas anstrengender, weil man bis hinaus zum "Lac de Tueda" schieben muss. Trotz allem eine sehr lohnende Tour um ein wenig der Masse zu entfliehen.
