Here is the first leg of a 3-day trek in the Mercantour.
Departing from the Countet bridge in the Gardolasque valley, this path joins the Merveilles refuge via a portion of the Vallée des Merveilles, famous for its prehistoric engravings.
The arrival at the refuge, nestled on the shores of Lac Long Supérieur, is enchanting.

Beaux paysages, pas mal d'animaux à voir ✨Attention cependant à la neige jusqu'aux genoux, rendant le parcours très difficile à suivre... Prévoyez vos raquettes.
