Itinerary description

From refuge de Merveilles up through vallee de Merveilles (not as impressive as expected) to refuge de Nice and down back to Belvedere.
Several very nice mountain lakes (though most of them are dammed) and abundant of chamois, especially near refuge de Nice.
Very long day out, ~ 9 hours.
