From the Goleon Lake, you'll have breathtaking views of the surrounding glaciers and of the peaks of La Meije, Aiguilles d'Arves and Aiguilles de la Saussaz.
Go around on the left side from the lake shore then head for the Aiguilles d' Arves mountains to access the ledge of Amont, filled with inscriptions made with stones.
Refuge Goleon located on the lakeside.
If you are lucky, you might see wild animals as marmots, ibex and vultures, not to speak of all the butterflies and alpine flowers.
