Lac Blanc is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful lakes in the Belledonne massif with its turquoise colour. This hike offers the best of Belledonne: forests, torrents, scree slopes, mountain pastures and mineral landscapes. The beauty of the landscapes along the route makes up for the somewhat strenuous climb.

Departure from Saint-Mury-Monteymond (Isère)
A very beautiful hike, difficult due to the elevation gain on the way there and back, which leaves no time to rest and leads to a fabulous lake.

Departure from La Ferrière (Isère) (Isère)
The title of this hike should be “Bivouac at Puy Gris”, as this viewpoint offers a unique experience to anyone spending a night there under the stars: splendid sunsets and sunrises against a magnificent panorama, the finest in Belledonne. Magnificent lakes dot the route and alpine wildlife is a regular sight.
Any difficult hike requires preparation, and this very difficult hike demands careful planning beforehand.

Departure from Saint-Mury-Monteymond (Isère)
Lac Blanc is undoubtedly the jewel among Belledonne’s many lakes. Its popularity lives up to its reputation. The vast majority of hikers set off from Pré Comté (on the IGN map, La Souille at 1,365m) rather than from Chenevrey (alt. 910m), no doubt due to the extra elevation gain. Yet this route, though more strenuous, is enchanting. The ascent takes place in the shade of the Saint-Mury forest, following the turbulent Ruisseau de Vorz, then opens out into a clearing revealing the superb Cirque du Boulon and its high cliffs, cascaded over by a spray of waterfalls. At the top of the cirque, the path joins the Pré Comté trail to reach Lac Blanc. Against a backdrop of high mountains, the hike continues towards the Pic Central de Belledonne, reaching the foot of the Freydanne Glacier and the vertiginous north face of the Grand Pic de Belledonne
