Balcon Sud, cross it and continue on a winding path through undergrowth to the junction with the path from Bois Prin and Les Bossons. Turn right, first into the forest, then through an avalanche corridor to Plan-Lachat (ruins) (1,576 m) 1 h 30. Follow the path into the clearing, leaving the sentier des Gardes on the right, cross a small forest and continue past a large bell tower over the vegetation on a number of switchbacks to Bel-Lachat.
