Tour of the Pointe d'Ardens from Lac des Plagnes

The hike around the Pointe d'Ardens by its lakes will allow you to discover all the beauty of the Haute-Savoie landscape.

Starting from the Plagnes lake, you will first go through the Ardens chalet located south of the summit of the same name: La Pointe d'Ardens, which culminates at 1959 m in altitude.

You will then reach the Tavaneuse lake located at the foot of the cliffs of the small Pointe du Piron, between scree and alpine meadows, one of the most beautiful lakes in the Chablais.

You will then go back down by the north of the Pointe d'Ardens to reach the Lac des Plagnes. Take advantage of the restaurants and picnic tables near the lake to recover from your hike and enjoy this must see geosite of the UNESCO Chablais World Geopark.
