Departure from Ancelle (Hautes-Alpes)
Long and difficult hike offered here as a circular route, first through mountain pastures then up steep slopes to the summit.
It can also be done as a round trip, which is shorter but involves a tricky descent to the Col de Combeau.
As a circular loop as described, the landscape and views are different and the slope is easier.
It's up to you.
