Le Col de la Vache depuis le parking du Muret
A pleasant hike in the magnificent Belledonne massif. The path begins by climbing towards the charming Habert d’Aiguebelle refuge. Once near it, it ascends the Pas de la Coche, passes above the pretty lake of the same name, then crosses a field of blueberry bushes. It passes the flank of the Roches Jaunes, joins theGR®®738and crosses mountain pastures. As you walk along the cliffs of the Crête des Îlettes, the pass comes into view against a rocky backdrop and can be reached after a steep scree slope, with a magnificent view of Lac du Cos and the peaks of the Allervard massif as a reward.

In a high-mountain mineral landscape, the trail crosses the Col de la Brèche Fendue to reach the Col de la Mine de Fer. Leaving the GR®, it descends towards the superb and popular Lac de Crop, then descends its lock and crosses the forest.
