Presentation

Lac du Charvin, a natural high altitude lake, located at an altitude of about 2000m.
This natural lake is located in a magnificent cirque at the foot of Mont Charvin. It is a unique place, which requires protective measures.

Climb a little more towards the Goenne ridge and you will come across a beautiful view of the Mont Blanc and Beaufortain mountains.

Meet our mountaineers in summer and come back with a good cheese from our mountains. 2 mountain pastures are located on this path:
The Aulp of Fier d'En Haut
Aulp De Fier d'En Bas
Please respect the parks and fences, making sure to close it behind you.

When you arrive at Lac du Charvin, we recommend that you go as far as the ridge of the Aravis range to get a view of Savoie, which lies behind our range, and Mont Blanc.
