Lac du Grand Doménon walks
Crossing the Grande Lance de Domène
The ascent to the Col de la Pra follows the very busy path to the Refuge de la Pra. From the pass just before the refuge, the path leads towards the Doménon lakes. It joins the spillway of the first lake, the start of this traverse.Although strenuous, the ascent up the western slope, which is well marked with paint and cairns, presents no technical difficulties or exposed sections. The descent down the eastern slope is not as easy to follow, but the route remains clear. The return journey follows the shores of Lac du Grand Doménon and then Lac du Petit Doménon to rejoin the outbound path.
