Lake of Beuil and Tête du Garnier, A concentration of all typical kinds of landscape found in the Cians Valley:
easy narrow paths winding through vast forests of larch trees, quiet vales leading to panoramas and high passes and the gentle ascents which
won’t do any harm to the hikers’ moral fibre or to their calf muscles !
