Description

A hike that takes in the emblematic Terre Rouge lakes.
From the Chalet Marano parking lot, turn left (behind the garbage can) onto the Terre Rouge lakes trail (b.90a). Follow it up the slope of the resort as far as marker 91, where it branches off to the right (east). Cross the Terre Rouge valley (ford it) to rejoin the military path from Col Mercière at marker 92. Continue due north on this path, which joins the glacier lock (b.93) and leads to the small lakes (2,417m, 2,425m) and the large Terre Rouge lake (2,452m). A winding movement and a few switchbacks lead to the Druos drop (2,628m - b.94), from where you can see the rocky Italian cirque of Valescura and the summit shoulder of Malinvern (2,938m). Return by the same route.
