Plan d'Aval Dam Circuit
As a symbol of human impact, this reservoir offers you a real-life tour of
the local industrial heritage. Discover the life of high-altitude dams at your
own pace.
And if you keep your eyes open, you may spot some very agile yellow-billed choughs having fun above the lake. Our friends, affectionately called
"choucas" here, know how to have a good time... They'll perform an aerial
dance from Dent Parrachée to Râteau d'Aussois merely to take a good look
at you, out of sheer curiosity.
After your walk, take a break on the sunny south-facing slope, enjoying
sweeping views over Aussois village.
And, as the icing on the cake, you'll leave with a wealth of knowledge about
the scientific and industrial heritage of Haute Maurienne Vanoise. You'll
understand all the workings of hydroelectricity.
