Palasinaz lakes

By: Visit Monterosa

Laghi di Palasinaz, 11022 Brusson AO

Palasinaz lakes

The lakes Palasinaz or also known as the 7 lakes (Literan, Battaglia, Verde, Potcha, Chaudière, Lungo, Bringuets) have always been a hiking destination with unforgettable views.

To reach them is very easy, starting from Estoul, crossing the pastures and continuing along the west slopes of Bieteron, in a path of about 3 hours. They are a favorite destination for many because of the ease of the route and the beauty of the view once arrived. From Bieteron, continuing on the right, you reach Lake Literan on a steep climb; descending on the main path you reach the wide pasture Arp di Palasinaz and, after a stony valley, in short you are at Lake Battaglia, on the right there is Lake Verde and, just upstream, Lake Potcha. Going right along a steep rock you reach Lake Chaudière; return near Lake Potcha, going up obliquely to the left, you reach Lake Lungo and from here, with a path almost flat, you get to the characteristic hill of Bocchetta overlooking the lake of Bringuets. The descent takes place from Bocchetta towards Lake Potcha, then following the ascent route. These lakes surrounded by nature always offer breathtaking views!
