La Visaille - Pont Combal - Lac Miage

Resorts: Courmayeur

This place is particularly interesting. A small lake has formed opposite the glacier, closed off by its right moraine.
Not far from the lake you can see the remains of fortifications from the 18th century, reminders of the invasions by French troops from Col de la Seigne.
