A very beautiful hike with a trail that gradually climbs, offering beautiful views of the Bléone River, which flows through Digne-les-Bains. The fortified village of Courbons proudly displays its medieval heritage. A break at the summit of Andran (altitude 1,218 m) is a must, as it offers an exceptional 360° view.

This route climbs above the village of Thoard.The path follows, in part, a track that is passable by 4x4s, so it is quite wide.

A very easy, flat walk around Lake L'Escale. You may spot many birds, so bring your binoculars! Although the road is often nearby, the path is always separate from the carriageway.

An easy route that combines the "Au fil de l'eau" heritage trail created by the Château-Arnoux Heritage Association with an exploration of the flora and fauna of the banks of the middle Durance.

Although not very high, the Cousson dominates the region because it is an isolated peak. This gentle walk will take you to the original St-Michel Chapel on its perch, then to the southern summit with its stunning view. This walk offers excellent value for money in terms of the view/difficulty of the climb! Ideal for families. Allow 3 to 3½ hours for the walk, no more. There are no surprises.

Reaching the ridge opens up a magnificent view of the Bès valley, the Bélier ridges, the Blayeul and, further afield, the Barles peaks. The descent along the ridge is just as pleasant, winding through thickets of boxwood and wild thyme, whose intoxicating scents add a sensory touch to this beautiful adventure.

Very beautiful hike to do between April and October.

Magnificent gorges, especially in autumn. The climb up to the Chapelle Saint-André is a 2km round trip, but the view from the top is well worth the diversions.
