Presentation

Hike GR®738 from Chamrousse to the Pra shelter, nothing to envy to the greatest routes of great trekking!
Discover the beautiful and more or less secret mountain lakes on the 10th stage of the GR®738 : Léama, Longet, Bernard, Claret ...

The hiking trail to the refuge de la Pra alternates between ponds and clearings. But it's the crystal-clear lakes that make this place so special.
The three lakes around La Pra are Lac du Claret, Lac de Merlat and Lac du Crozet. Lac David is located 500 meters above the refuge de la Pra, to the west when you have the refuge at your back.

Once a chalet-hotel, the refuge de la Pra was very popular with hikers and climbers. Now refurbished, it sleeps 90 in summer.

The GR®738 - Haute traversée de Belledonne is a challenge to be taken up over one or more days to discover the southern part of this massif, leaving from Chamrousse for a one-day loop or a two-day itinerary. Lakes and pastures meet ski lifts, tourism and pastoralism share the space.

Swimming in the lakes is forbidden by municipal decree of the city of Revel.

La Pra - refuge and lakes: Natura 2000 site/classified site/registered site
❌Prohibited: fire (except camping stove) and bivouac under the La Pra mountain hut (from July, 15th to August, 31th) and around the Claret and Merlat lakes (all year)
✔️Authorised: bivouac from sunset to sunrise (outside the refuge area, Claret and Merlat lakes) / Advised: hiking on developed paths and dog on a lead, especially near herds with patous (protection and defence dogs).

Opening periodFrom 15/04 to 15/11.
