Itinerary description

From the parking, go down the road and then left onto a small road. Follow it until you can turn right down to the river. Cross the bridge and turn left. Follow the main path towards the dam. Just before the dam turn right up towards La Lette / Fournoutse / Gouille du Dragon. Follow for that until reaching Fournoutse.
On the way back, we turned right and didn't go back over La Lette, but that's just a few minutes extra. Also, we didn't go back over the bridge but continued straight and approached Bourg St Pierre from behind. There we took a very steep shortcut to get back to the parking.
Moderate as it is not an official snowshoe trail, otherwise no real difficulty.
