Description of the route:
From the Laisonnay car park (Info Point open in summer), take the tarmac road on foot for 300 m; after the bridge, first take the track to the left which then goes to the right, in the direction of the Glière refuge.
This road, suitable for vehicles, is wide; it allows mountaineers, with authorization from the Park, to use their vehicles; it quickly enters the Park and rises in this magnificent valley of the Glière. From time to time, a path allows you to by-pass the track (signs) toreach the Glière refuge.
For the descent, take the same route.
