Lac Vert

POPULARITY
2/3

The calm green waters of Lac Vert extend out from the base of the high cliffs of the Fiz, offering a stunning scene. Though the lake can be busy at times, the route up from the village of Servoz is quiet. You’ll follow the Souay river steeply uphill before rising above the tree line and coming into view of the Mont-Blanc massif.

Bonus KMs and Bailouts

The bonus kilometers offer big rewards, so try to include them if you have time!
Note that not every run has a bailout. But if a run does, we’ve included the download below.
