A gouille, in local dialect, is a very small body of water. The one in Rosuel is no less magnificent! The mountains are reflected in its impossibly blue waters, sometimes emerald in the sunlight, sometimes cobalt when the clouds invade the sky. It is the perfect place to contemplate and marvel. In the background: glaciers as far as the eye can see and nature preserved by the Vanoise National Park only a hundred metres away! If you listen carefully, you may hear waterfalls flowing down the Rochers des Sétives in the distance. And if you are really lucky, you may see the bearded vulture flying over the hamlet of La Gurraz. The experience would not be complete without a picnic break on the edge of the water (barbecues and toilets available), followed by a visit to one of the wildlife exhibitions in the Maison du Parc national de la Vanoise to learn more about the mountain environment.
