Day 36: 11 July, Refuge de Entre-le-Lac – Val d isére

We made pancakes with Nutella for breakfast, something we had been longing for! It tasted wonderful. Then we started climbing, it was a hot and sunny day, we had a beautiful walk in a valley.

We stopped at refuge col du Palet close to the top and had a cop of coffee, then we continued to the top Col du Palet 2657 m the highest point on this trip so far.

We enjoyed the view and took some pictures before we walked down the valley on the other side of the mountain.

Walking down on the other side

It was nice and quiet but suddenly the view became different, we looked down at Tignes -le -Lac, we were not really impressed, it looked like a town with only big new hotels. The town was full of tourists playing golf, tennis and skiing on the glacier.

We passed through the town and continued for about one more hour down to Val d isere. The last part was really nice we walked in a forest and sometimes the view of the lake Lac du Chevrill appeared and in the end we walked along a river to Val d’Isère.
