Departure from Valjouffrey (Isère)
Magnificent view of the north face of Olan (3,563 m), accessed via a typical trough-shaped glacial valley. First, you pass the Pisse waterfall, then you enter this valley deeply carved out by glaciers before reaching the only refuge in the valley. You are facing the Olan with its 1,000-metre vertical wall, but there are still 300 metres to climb to reach the Col des Lauvets with its viewpoints.

Departure from Valbonnais (Isère)
A lovely route between Valbonnais and Entraigues. This peaceful valley, surrounded by high peaks, allows us to discover the two villages and the 14th-century irrigation systems.

Departure from Valjouffrey (Isère)
A hike to discover a magnificent, fairly well-known and easily accessible waterfall. Then, and above all, a short hanging valley, shaped like a glacial cirque, much more secluded and rather wild.

Very difficult
Departure from La Chapelle-en-Valgaudemar (Hautes-Alpes)
A very challenging 180 km route with 12,000 metres of elevation gain, requiring excellent physical fitness. Stages offering spectacular scenery, steep mountains, passes, wildlife, flora and colours. The most beautifulGR® route we have ever done. We completed the route in August, the ideal time to tackle the most difficult passes, which are likely to be snow-covered early in the season, such as La Muzelle, l’Aup Martin, the Pas de la Cavale, de la Valette, Vallonpierre and de La Vaurze.

Departure from Valjouffrey (Isère)
Ascent through the wild and unspoilt Chalp valley. With a bit of luck, you’ll spot plenty of marmots and chamois.The climb is quite steep. It begins in the forest, then cuts across beneath the rocky ridges of the valley, which the path crosses on the left (as you ascend).
Le Désert-en-Valjouffrey - Valsenestre

Difficult
Departure from Valjouffrey (Isère)
Ethird stage involving the ascent of a pass with no major technical difficulty, though the gradient is steep in places and differs slightly from the route shown on the IGN map. From the top of the pass, there is a splendid view of the Col de la Muzelle, the Roche de la Muzelle and the Pic du Clapier du Peyron on either side, promising a beautiful stage for the following day. During the descent, you pass through a maze of large, intertwined slabs of slate clinging to the mountainside.

Departure from Villar-Loubière (Hautes-Alpes)
Thesecond stage of this route, which we unfortunately completed in the rain in 6 hours and 10 minutes. We set off from the Refuge des Souffles with a steep climb right from the start up to the Col de la Vaurze. A challenging pass from which the view must be magnificent on a clear day. A descent over slate-covered ground, which is very slippery in wet weather. Numerous landslides. The reward: the Les Arias lodge, where we received a warm welcome.
