This path winds through the forest and leads you to a first wide clearing, then to a second and three large basins of water forming a cascade.
From the lake, set off in the direction of Le Praz, turn right and walk along the lake. Go straight up towards the house with the red shutter. Take care crossing the ski piste and continue up the path opposite. Climb up the Eclipse piste, keeping to the left hand edge and take the first path which goes back into the forest. After 200m, you arrive in the Mateigena clearing. Carry straight on along a flat road that leads down to the pools.
Return by the same route.
