A sign after the hamlet of Poingt Ravier indicates that the return route from Albanette to Valloire is closed.
At (10), only a pedestrian crossing remains. On arrival in Valloire, a municipal decree is displayed indicating that traffic on this road is prohibited, particularly for pedestrians, and that failure to comply with this decree may result in a fine.

From Plan Lachat, a circular takes you over three passes (La Ponsonnière, Cerces and Rochilles) and past five lakes (Ponsonnière, Grand Lac, Cerces, Grand Ban and Rond).
The view of Lautaret and the Aiguilles d'Arves is splendid, and the rocks of Pic de la Moulinière and Pointe des Cerces are impressive.

This is a short hike with little elevation gain in the barren environment around the Col du Galibier, just for the pleasure of walking along a pretty valley and lazing around for a few hours in the afternoon in absolute calm. Rejuvenation guaranteed.
