Approach
The normal route begins at the Parking de Bellecombe at an altitude of 2307 m , which can be reached after approx. 12 km from Termignon via the Route de Bellecombe (D 126). On an almost flat path, you first go to Plan du Lac , leave the Refuge du Plan du Lac hut on the left and then orientate yourself towards La Bourgeat , where the Torrent de la Rocheure is crossed a little later . You finally follow this stream on its right-hand side as seen in the direction of flow to the hut. The path presents no technical difficulties, but the ascent is about 11 km long. Allow around three hours of walking for the ascent. Since some sections of the path lead downhill on the ascent, a total of 400 meters in altitude must be mastered.
