This route crosses the ski slopes and allows you to reach several refreshment places located in the area. You can reach by car the village of Plan Prorion (1748 m), where the road is interrupted in winter and parking spaces are available. Leave the car, walk to the cross-country center restaurant bar and follow the signs for the pedestrian path, being careful not to step on the cross-country trails.
Initially, the route crosses the wood of the picnic area, then continues on a stretch of snow-covered road that climbs to Chantorné, the sunny Torgnon ski area. The path goes alongside the Winter Park snow playground. Continue till the cable car arrival station and then along the cross-country track (keep to the right and do not walk on the ski tracks).
After passing the stretch in the woods, leave the cross-country track and turn left to Gordzà, as from the Châtelard mountain pasture the track is reserved for cross-country skiers. From here, in about a quarter of an hour, you can reach Lake Gordzà (1949 m).
