Beschrijving
At the south end of Champoluc a trail starts and enters a large grassy meadow, bordered on one side by the forest and on the other by the river Evancon, covered by a thick scrub of alders. This place is great for Witte Kwikstaart, feeding around the horses, and for Europese Kanarie, Zwarte Roodstaart, Sperwer and Winterkoning. Going further down, the trail enters the forest and gets closer to the river, arriving in a little fishing lake, called Green Lake (indicated with star on the map). This section is great for Matkop, Kuifmees, Goudvink, Taigaboomkruiper, Waterspreeuw, Vuurgoudhaan and Zanglijster. Then after crossing the road the trail gets back in an open meadow and continues heading South towards a little chapel. This section is more bushy then the first one, with a more scattered tree cover on the west side. Here it's great for Grauwe Klauwier, Groene Specht, Boompieper, Kramsvogel, Grote Lijster and Geelgors. During migration, the best period is late April/May in spring and August/early September in autumn, there are many interesting species to be found like Bonte Vliegenvanger, Gele Kwikstaart, Draaihals, Braamsluiper (which also breeds here), Fitis and Bergfluiter.

Toegang
The best way to get there is to park at the free parking Route Dondeynaz in Champoluc (click on the P in the map for directions) and then follow the road on foot on the other side of the bridge, heading South to Pratone di Varasc (indicated with star on the map). The best way to explore the area is definitely on foot, but it's also possible on mountain bike. It takes around 1.30/2 hours to properly cover the place, but it can be done in less time.
