About trip

t-Blanc, follow signs for Martigny on the road to Les Praz.
Start at Les Praz de Chamonix. Park in the La Flégère gondola parking lot. It's best to take the Flégère gondola, which saves us 800m of uninteresting ascent.

From the top of the gondola station, descend into the Combe de la Chavanne. Near the old stables, on the left, follow the trail that winds up the slope and passes the Chalets et Lac de la Flégère (2,027m).
Take the path below the Tête du Aubuy: it stretches out, skirts a ridge (small lake) and joins the path coming from Argentière. Lac Blanc is reached via the side of a flattening combe. Allow 1h45 one-way.
