Departure from Arvieux (Hautes-Alpes)
A must-do hike in Queyras! Furfande is only accessible on foot, snowshoes, skis or mountain bike, making it a village isolated from everything, like a small local "Mafate" (but only inhabited in summer and without the helicopters).
Departure from Col de Furfande, the highest point of the hike (2,500 m), accessible by car from mid-June to mid-November.
A shorter version is possible by turning left in Les Granges, towards the "Refuge de Furfande". This halves the distance and time.
