A fantastic excursion through one of Pralognan’s wilder areas, where local herds of chamois and alpine ibex often spend their time. Col Rouge Pass offers spectacular views of the Three Valleys.
Camine por el entorno mineral del Col Rouge, entre pedregales de color oscuro y luego cargneules y arcilla de color ocre. Desde el collado, disfrute de una vista panorámica de los glaciares de la Vanoise y de toda la zona de Trois Vallées (Mont Vallon, Aiguille du Fruit, Aiguille du Borgne...). A la bajada, una merecida parada en el pasto de montaña de Ritord le permitirá degustar los diferentes quesos producidos del valle. We recommend an early start, as the part of the route between the Ritord chalets and the Col Rouge is in direct sunlight. Please note that there are no water points on the route! The trail can be tricky, especially after torrential rain.
