Departure from Briançon (Hautes-Alpes)
A pleasant path along the canal with little change in elevation. The canal is for pedestrians only and mountain bikes are prohibited. Wooden barriers are currently being installed.
The canal path isn’t always well-maintained or easy to follow – it’s a bit of a treasure hunt.
