Discover a must-do hike in the Mercantour National Park: the ascent of Mont Pépoiri, a peak offering breathtaking panoramic views of the Millefonts Lakes and the surrounding peaks. From the Millefonts car park, the trail winds its way through typical high-mountain landscapes. Alpine pastures lie alongside rocky areas, with a few larch trees adding a touch of greenery to the rocky landscape. As you climb, you’ll pass close to several alpine lakes, including the splendid Lac Gros, an ideal spot to stop and admire the reflection of the mountains in its crystal-clear waters. At the summit of Mont Pépoiri, at an altitude of 2,674 metres, the panoramic view is well worth the effort. The Millefonts Lakes stretch out below, forming a spectacular landscape that will delight photography and nature enthusiasts alike. The descent completes this circular route, taking you back to the starting point whilst offering further views of the massif.
