Although the first part of the route is quite steep, the scenery will soon make you forget the effort you have put in on the GR 96, which alternates between rivers and waterfalls.<\/p>\n<p>The route described here is a loop that leads to the Chalets de Sales, then to the Col de la Portette at the southern end of the D\u00e9sert de Plat\u00e9, before returning to the Passage du D\u00e9rochoir to begin the long descent to the Lignon. There are no particular difficulties, apart from the length of the route (around 18km), which may intimidate beginners.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"cap\" ><br \/>\n<script async=\"\" src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><\/span><\/p>\n<p><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3567350517589380\" data-ad-slot=\"5784331615\" data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script><br \/>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});<br \/>\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Difficulty<\/strong>: Hard <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"32\" height=\"37\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-710\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randos-montblanc.com\/images\/bouton\/hiking-icon-difficile.png\" alt=\"hiking-icon-moyen\"\/><\/li>\n<li><b>Altitude<\/b>: 1,877 m at the Chalets de Sales ; 2,354 m at the Col de la Portette ; 2,220 m at the D\u00e9rochoir<\/li>\n<li><b>Route<\/b>: 2 hours 00 min to get to the chalets (5 hours 30 min in total)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Elevation Gain<\/strong>: 700 meters to get to the chalets ; 1,330 m in total<\/li>\n<li><strong>Round-trip<\/strong>: 17.6 km in total<\/li>\n<li><strong>Map<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wikiloc.com\/hiking-trails\/les-chalets-de-sales-le-col-de-la-portette-et-le-derochoir-143580243?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>IGN 3530 ET<\/b><\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>Restrictions<\/strong> : Dogs (even on a leash) and gathering prohibited.

The path then enters the forest. A little further on, the path leads to the beautiful waterfalls of La Pleureuse and La Sauffaz. Leave the path on the left towards Lac d&#8217;Anterne and turn right towards the path marked &#8220;Col de la Portette (GR 96) &#8211; 2h 45&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>After a few steep hairpin bends, you reach the Torrent de Sales on a path that flattens out. Continue either on the footbridge to the right or on the path to the left to reach the gorges and the Sales waterfall. A series of short, sharp bends leads to the Trainant waterfall further upstream, before arriving at the refuge and the Chalets de Sales, just a few minutes away.<\/p>\n<p>Continue on to reach the heart of the Grand Pr\u00e9 plain. At a signpost, turn right towards &#8220;Col de la Portette &#8211; 1h 45&#8221;. The route leads over large boulders and through grass on a path that soon reaches the D\u00e9sert de Plat\u00e9 and the small lakes of Les Laouchets on the right. After a short final effort, you reach the Col de la Portette.<\/p>\n<p>From here, turn right towards the Passage du D\u00e9rochoir, as indicated by the sign at the foot of the pass. The path crosses several scree slopes below the Pointe de Plat\u00e9 and the Pointe du D\u00e9rochoir. You will then reach the Passage du D\u00e9rochoir, where you will be rewarded with a magnificent view of the Mont Blanc massif.<\/p>\n<p>Return to the path and go straight down towards Grand Pr\u00e9 to return to the Le Lignon car park.<\/p>\n<p class=\"first-child\">\n<script async=\"\" src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3567350517589380\" data-ad-slot=\"5784331615\" data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script><br \/>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});<br \/>\n<\/script><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Photos of the Chalets de Sales, the Col de la Portette, and the D\u00e9rochoir<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_0_placeholder<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Route<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><a class=\"maxbutton-3 maxbutton maxbutton-download-the-route-kml\" target=\"_blank\"  rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.randos-montblanc.com\/kml\/sales.kml\"><span class='mb-text'>Download the route (KML)<\/span><\/a> <a class=\"maxbutton-3 maxbutton maxbutton-download-the-route-kml\" target=\"_blank\"  rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.randos-montblanc.com\/gpx\/Chalets-Sales.gpx\"><span class='mb-text'>Download the route (GPX)<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"leaflet-map WPLeafletMap\" style=\"height:344px;
