Description of the route

From Arpy, follow the cross-country track in the same direction, keeping to the right. Follow the road for a bit and then the path which, after a last steep climb, leads to Lake Arpy. Follow the lake shores to the second plateau: here you have two alternative - climb to the right and cross a steep segment to the left, or climb the groove to the left of the waterfall.
