This is the only inn (and B&B) in the area. Be careful, it only opens at 2:30 p.m. It's a steep climb before and after!

Very nice walk, the first part is a little difficult to access the lake because of the big difference in altitude. But the tour of the lake is very pleasant, and accessible with children (10 years old)
