This is an easy walk, mainly on paved or unpaved tracks (some are necessary), which nevertheless offers constant views of the Meije massif, wide open spaces around you, and a bright route rich in discoveries.
What's more, this route is ideal for Nordic walking.
The lakes of the Emparis plateau
Hike facing the majestic panorama offered by La Meije, one of the queens of the Ecrins.

Le Gros Têt: another viewpoint overlooking La Meije above the Emparis plateau
A hike offering superb views of the Meije glaciers as well as the Emparis plateau.
Whilst the Emparis plateau is renowned for its views of the Meije, it is naturally very busy. This hike allows you to enjoy the same views whilst walking in a wilder setting.

A route that circles La Meije, initially following the Romanche torrent. You will pass close to Villar d'Arène. Thesecond section, starting from Pont d'Arsine, is slightly more challenging and much wilder, taking in the Pas d'Anna Falque and the Plan d'Alpe before reaching the Refuge de l'Alpe de Villar-d'Arêne, which offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains.
Belvedere at the Évariste Chancel refuge
This outing, starting from La Grave, offers remarkable views of the Romanche valley. These views will be the bonus of the day after passing Lac de Puy Vachier and the Évariste Chancel refuge.
