The Chécrouit lake is in fact more of a large pond and situated at over 2,000 metres near the Colle Chécrouit directly opposite the south face of Mont Blanc. Today, it is easily accessible by a telecabine lift from Courmayeur and its view to the north, across the wooded Val Veny is spectacular. Seen from this side Mont Blanc’s Brouillard and Innominata glaciers and ridges give the enormous mountain a Himalayan character.
