Tour in the Champorcher Valley

Tour of “the lakes”

• Summer tour of the upper Champorcher valley
• In just four stages, 12 lakes and ponds along the way (Muffé – Vernouille – Raty – Giasset -Pontonnet – Nero – Miserin – Mollere – Vercoche) and many high-altitude views.
• Also possible with an overnight stay at Miserin if you don’t mind shared accommodation.
• Normally without luggage at Dondena but possible at an additional cost.
• With two lunches at Muffé and Miserin, you only need a picnic for the stage from Dondena to Champorcher.
• It has the advantage of being a loop, allowing you to return to your car or use public transport.
• You can add a stage at the end, arriving in Mellier (Champorcher – Pointe d’Arcomy – Rosier – Mellier).

Trek’Eau Champorcher Valley

• A six-stage tour that climbs up the upper part of the Champorcher valley on the left side, starting from Savin or Mellier, then joining the Trek’Eau and following it to Bard.
• It allows you to take advantage of the greater accommodation capacity of the valley.
• This tour can also be extended with a night in Barbustel to add the lakes near the refuge.
• It can also be a beautiful 4-night tour for late spring and autumn if you remove the 2 nights at the Dondena refuge.
• It has the advantage that you can reach both the start and finish points by public transport, or use it to return to your car. If combined with the ‘Trek’Eau Mont Avic’ tour, it allows you to complete the entire trek’eau in two stages.
