The alpine meadows of the basin at the foot of Mont Fallère is host to numerous pastures and provides vast panoramas of the Gran Paradiso valleys and their mountains. Grivola stands out in all of its glory.
The itinerary leads to Lac Fallère, enclosed within a basin at the foot of Mont Fallère, passing not far from Lac des Feuilles.
The first part of the climb provides a view of Becca France and the historical landslide of 1564.
Description of the route
Just above the houses in Thouraz, a hill hamlet within the municipality of Sarre, leave the road and go up to Thouraz Superiore, then take the dirt road that goes up into the valley, parallel to the stream, to reach a left bend after a short-cut beyond Moron chalet, and then take the right path that slopes upwards to the Morgnoz pasture. Along the access road you come to the private road running above. Follow it leftwards in the direction of Tsa de Morgnoz. (You can skip the last bend by taking a short-cut on the left of the track just after the houses). From here you soon get up to the Lake Fallère terrace.
