Rochers de Lanserlia.
You leave via the GR5 along a wide dirt road in the direction of the refuge de Cuchet. Just past the Alpage de Piou you leave the dirt road and you climb to the Col de Lanserlia through meadows with the Ruisseau de Piou as your guide. On the Col de Lanserlia you start the climb to the Pointe de Lanserlia. At the top you can quietly enjoy the 360 ° panorama. You descend on the other side with some cairns as the only guideline to reach the Ruisseau de Fontabert. When you reach the river, follow the path next to the river to the junction with the Vallon de Rocheure. Here you go via a beautiful panorama path in the direction of the Plan du Lac valley. Just past the refuge Du Plan Du Lac you pick up the GR5 route that takes you back to the starting point.
