Departure from La Grave (Hautes-Alpes)
To reach the hamlet of Chazelet, you can drive there (handy for popping out for an ice cream with the family). You could do a round trip following part of the GR®50–GR®54 trail or, as shown here, go via the Notre-Dame de Bon Repos Chapel and take the opportunity to see the magnificent waterfall above the hamlet of Fréaux. In any case, the view of the glaciers is spectacular.
