This is a short, easy circular that starts by following the Canal d'Arvieux and returns via a forest track.

Grande boucle entre forêt de mélèzes et crêtes offrant un très beau point de vue sur Queyras, Ubaye, Ecrins, Thabor.

Easy hike. Little elevation gain, which is very gradual, except for a slightly steep 300m trail at the start and 500m at the end. Mostly in the forest, with superb viewpoints over the Guil Valley, then the Souliers Valley and finally Arvieux. 50/50 forest track and trails.

This is a particularly pleasant route, starting in the woods and then passing through beautiful mountain pastures, crossing the alpine village of Granges de Furfande and ending at the refuge below the pass of the same name.

This forest and mountain pasture trail offers a fascinating glimpse of the valley and some of Europe's highest villages, including Saint Véran.

This is a pleasantly varied circular hike thanks to a climb mainly through forest, the lake and its surroundings, the rocky atmosphere of the Casse Déserte and the unusual return route along the bed of the Torrent de l'Izoard. This lake is very popular in July and August because it is easily accessible from the Col d'Izoard road, but this route allows you to enjoy most of the hike in peace and quiet.

In Queyras, at this time of year (late October), the ubiquitous larch forests colour the mountain landscapes with shades ranging from yellow to red, and the snow-capped peaks further enhance this feeling of fulfilment. The proposed hike takes place in this atmosphere above the highest village in Europe: Saint-Véran.

A pleasant little circular to discover the highest village in Europe. Starting from Pierre Grosse, cross the hamlet of La Chalp. No great difficulty. Magnificent views of the Queyras peaks.

A superb circular starting from Brunissard, which takes you to Pic des Esparges Fines after a gradual climb. This is followed by a passage past several lakes, ending at the Chalets de Clapeyto, nestled in a haven of peace. The return via the Col du Cros and the descent into the woods of the same name complete this magnificent walk.

Long loop to explore the Clapeyto chalets, then climb above to the Terres Blanche ridge where there are several lakes. Return via the Col du Néal and theGR® 5. Well-marked trails. Following the closure of the trail that started from the cross-country ski centre, we will start from the small lake at the entrance to the campsite which is an extra kilometre on the road in summer. This hike can also be done in winter on snowshoes, starting from theGR® 5 between the cross-country ski trails.

From the Curlet cross, there is a superb view of Saint Véran, the highest village in Europe, and the entire upper Queyras, from the Col d'Izoard to the Col Agnel.

This is a superb hike, partly unmarked on the IGN map, where you will undoubtedly be the only ones to enjoy the 360° panorama throughout the central part of the hike.The ridge is safe for hikers who are not afraid of heights and are used to the mountains. Hiking boots are recommended.About halfway along the ridge, there is a lovely spot for a snack, with a hollow to shelter from the wind.

You'll take the Aiguillettes path up to the two major passes above Ceillac, then join the Col de Fromage via the Souillet path on the Guil valley side, on a beautiful balcony path. ⚠️Caution: the Aiguillettes path crosses 3 ravines that may pose problems for some. If this is the case, you can take the GR® which starts nearby and ends at the same point. Less interesting but quieter.

A very beautiful, easy walk through old hamlets and magnificent landscapes. The path is always fairly wide and without any significant slopes, making it ideal for snowshoeing.
