Itinerary description

<<< English follows >>> Esta ruta sale desde el hotel L'Hostellerie du Paradis, en L'Eau Rousse. Hay un pequeño parking para cinco o seis coches. Se empieza atravesando un bosque de coníferas (alerces), donde el suelo es suave y se camina por la sombra. Huele muy bien a pino. Las mayores pendientes las vamos a tener en esta zona. Una vez que se sale del bosque, el sol era fuerte pero la marcha es cómoda porque a esa altitud no hace calor y soplaba algo de viento. Todo es subida, sin apenas ningún tramo plano pero no son grandes pendientes. La ruta resulta adecuada para niños. El punto de agua indicada en la ruta es potable. El lago Djouan no es muy grande pero es un lugar estupendo para sentarse, comer, descansar y pensar en la bajada. Desde el Lago Djouan puedes subir hasta el Colle Entrelor. Es un camino con flores y mariposas. También es fácil que puedas ver marmotas. <<< English >>> This route leaves from the hotel L'Hostellerie du Paradis, in L'Eau Rousse. There is a small parking for five or six cars. You start going through a forest of conifers (larches), where the soil is soft and you go walking in the shadow. The pines smell very well. The highest slopes are in this area. Once the trail leaves the forest, the Sun was strong but the walk is comfortable because at that altitude is not too hot and some wind blew. The whole walk is upwards, without hardly any flat stretch, but there are not big slopes. The route is suitable for children. The point of water indicated in the route is drinking water. The lake Djouan is not very large but is a great place to sit, eat, rest and think on the way down. From Lake Djouan, you can climb to Colle Entrelor. It is a path with flowers and butterflies. Also it is easy that you can see marmots
