La Leisse Refuge

Description

The Leisse torrent awaits you just after you pass the Entre Deux Eaux refuge. On the left bank, the GR®55 and the Via Alpina invite you to embark on journey through what truly feels like the "end of the world". Enter a world of waterfalls and lush green alpine pastures. Here, sheep and cows share the tender grass to produce their best milk for you. Will Bleu de Termignon and Beaufort be on your picnic menu? At your own pace, continue along the valley floor. Here, you'll find the many waterfalls that come cascading down from the Grand Casse peaks, at over 3,500 metres of altitude. The distant whistles of marmots accompany you throughout the journey. As you gaze up at the clear sky, you might catch a glimpse of the Bearded Vulture, often to be seen gracefully soaring on warm air currents. Filled with a sense of the infinite, you walk on and soon find yourself perched at 2,487 meters, ready to savour a treat at the mountain refuge. And if you feel like it, why not spend a night there? The return to the Bellecombe car park will be even more enjoyable after all the distance you've covered.
