๐ŸŒž๐ŸŒก๏ธTired of the scorching 35ยฐC ๐Ÿฅต๐ŸŒก๏ธ in Grenoble? Letโ€™s escape to the mountains ๐Ÿ”๏ธ and enjoy some fresh air and water ๐Ÿ’ฆ ! We will ๐Ÿš— for 1 hour and park near Lavaldens, a village in the Matheysine region. Then we will hike through the shady forest ๐ŸŒฒ and pass by a refuge and an alpine hut ๐Ÿ . At the alpine hut, we will start a loop trail that will take us to the Rif Bruyant lake ๐ŸŒŠ If itโ€™s not dry, we can swim in it and cool off ๐ŸŠโ€โ™‚๏ธ Then we will finish the loop and return to the car. We will ๐Ÿš— to Lac de Petichet, another gorgeous lake where we can relax, swim and have fun (bring some games) ๐Ÿ˜Ž We can even buy pizzas and drinks at the lake ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿฅค
