Departure from La Roche-des-Arnauds (Hautes-Alpes)
A classic PR® marked trail, located mainly in the Sauvas National Forest, above La Roche des Arnauds.
The route descends from the Maison Forestière de Matacharre to the Ravin du Rif de l'Arc, climbs back up to the Col de Matacharre via the forest road through Le Pinet, then follows a GRP® trail with a few tricky sections to the Col de Conode (GR®94B). The circular route finally ends with the descent on the D7 track from Conode.
Mèfi1: the crossing between the Col de Matacharre and the Col de Conode includes three tricky crossings of schistose ravines and scree slopes, some of which are quite exposed. This part of the route requires you to be accustomed to this type of terrain andto remain cautious.

Departure from Agnières-en-Dévoluy (Hautes-Alpes)
Most of the route follows theGRP® Tour du Dévoluy trail markedGR®94.
For the return journey, rather than going back the same way, you can vary the route by returning via Small Pass and Le Charvet. This is an off-trail route.
This alternative route must be taken in good visibility and requires the ability to use a map and compass, which is essential for off-trail hiking.
The view from Le Chauvet over Le Dévoluy is magnificent.
