Argentière > Lac des Cheserys hiking trail

Please note: in order to preserve mountain lakes, swimming is now prohibited at Lac Blanc and Lacs des Chéserys by prefectoral decree. From the village of Argentière, take the right-hand path through the Bois du Plagnolet. Take a series of switchbacks up to the Baraque Forestière (1,865 m). A rise above the forest leads to the Chalets des Chéserys (1,998 m) 2 h 30. You can then continue on to Lac Blanc, a little higher up. Lac des Chéserys can be reached from the top of the Flégère cable car or the Col des Montets.
