Lac des Cerces - Hiking trail

Discover a magnificent hike with the Cerces lake as a reward on arrival. In a sumptuous setting, follow the path that will lead you to this mountain lake.

From the Plan Lachat parking lot, take the dirt track. All around you are vast pastures where you can watch the peaceful sheep.

When you reach Granges des Mottets, follow the narrow path up the mountainside. Look up and you're sure to spot vultures circling over the tapering ridges of the Massif des Cerces.

A little further on, the Lac des Cerces appears, nestled in the rocks. The blue of its waters, reflecting the clear sky, stands out against the charcoal grey of the rocks and the soft green of the grass. Take the time to pause here before retracing your steps.
