Scenic route along Entraunes - Col de Salèse de Douans by Ben
May 15, 2025 · Community
A wonderful hike with amazing views. Not a dull moment. It's worth doing even if you don't intend to get to the top: we did it in early May, and there was to much snow on the path above the middle lakes, but we still had a wonderful day and a great hike.
