The view stretches south to the Écrins Massif.

This hike starts at the old Petit Saint Bernard hospice, on the road to the pass of the same name. The trail begins on grassy plains and winds its way to a fork in the road with signs pointing to "Sommet de Lancebranlette " on the right and "Lac sans fond" on the left. The choice is yours.
If you decide to continue on to the summit, a steep and rugged path, stabilized by logs, stretches for a few hundred meters. Fortunately, you can already enjoy a magnificent view to catch your breath... before reaching the 2,936-meter summit of the ridge and its orientation table!
On the way down, don't forget to take a detour to the bottomless lake.
