Lakes, waterfalls and gorges

Discover the allure of the lakes, waterfalls and gorges of Chamonix-Mont-Blanc Valley

There is water, water everywhere in the Mont-Blanc Massif! With crystal-clear mountain lakes, fascinating waterfalls and impressive gorges, there is always something to see when out trekking. 

Whether you are an experienced hiker or simply enjoy admiring the scenery as you amble along, you will love walking here. 
The Gaillands and Chavants lakes and the Bérard waterfall can all be easily reached. Meanwhile, the Chéserys and Le Cornu lakes require a little more effort. 
If you go up to the Aiguille du Midi, make sure you stop to admire the enchanting waters of Lac Bleu just a few minutes from the Plan de l’Aiguille midway station.
Finally, the Gorges de la Diosaz* is an easy circuit and provides some welcome shade in summer.

The lakes, waterfalls and gorges form a fresh and fascinating highlight on any excursion!
