What a lovely route on a clear sunny day. This way an introductory trek for most of the group. The views were clear and spectacular.

It was essential to carry plenty of fluids due to the very hot conditions. There was excellend condiitions underfoot.

On the return section we decided to head back into the lake and even sampled the warm water which is an exception here. Normally the water is mountain lake icy cold. Care must be taken to ensure that you understand the lie of the lake bed before attempting to sample its delights!
