Cirque de Morgon walks

Panoramic view of Lake Serre Ponçon from the Pic du Morgon (2,324 m).A family hike that can test your legs on the last part. For information: The Morgon mountain pasture is closed to dogs from 15 June to 15 September. They are tolerated on a leash between 15 July and 15 August. 17.05.2023: The Grand Clos car park is only accessible via the Abbaye de Boscodon.

A very varied hike. Larch woods, a circular path with views of the Embrunais and Lake Serre-Ponçon; the Cirque de Bragousse and its Demoiselles, not to mention the Col de la Rousse and its mountain pastures and the Pic de Charance with its view of the Cirque de Morgon. An alternative to the very popular Grand Morgon climb. Here you can see marmots and chamois (if you're observant enough).

This is a great hike that will leave you in awe of the magnificent landscape at Pic de Morgon. What's more, this route offers great variety.

The route crosses the superb Boscodon State Forest, continues through the Cirque de Morgon with its small lake, and ends with a descent in wide hairpin bends through the forest on the edge of the Cirque de Bragousse. Along the way, several viewpoints offer splendid views of the Lac de Serre-Ponçon, the Pic de Morgon and the Cirque de Bragousse.
