After 1 hour of easy walking, the valley opens onto large open spaces, the domain of summer pastures and herds.
The walk continues to the bottom of the En Gaudu jasse; the return is made by the same path. Take the time to appreciate ... From here, you can observe and listen to the hissing marmots but also, sometimes, chamois, large raptors or beautiful butterflies!
