    The trail continues north towards the summit of Grand Charvia, which overlooks the cirque. The route alternates bumps and gentle slopes. We come to a fork in the path marking the arrival at the lake.

    The return journey takes the same route, but a variant is possible via Lac des Sarailles.

    This itinerary borders on the Rochebrune - Izoard - Vallée de la Cerveyrette Natura 2000 site. Although the route is not on a listed site, it is essential to preserve the site by staying on the trails.
