Col de Vassieux (1333m) walks

The Cols de Vassieux offer breathtaking views of the Marignac en Diois valley, Die, the Col du Rousset, the Glandasse, the Grand Veymont and the entire chain up to the Pic Saint-Michel above Villard-de-Lans and the Chironne rocks. Breathtaking ravines, flowers and butterflies everywhere, a marvel and, as a bonus, the passage of griffon vultures reintroduced to the region!

Loop starting from the Col du Rousset, setting off along the superb old mule track carved into the hillside, then skirting the plain of the Bergerie de Chironne to reach the Col de Vassieux refuge in the forest. Return via the path overlooking the Diois valley, via the But de l'Aiglette and the Rochers de Chironne. A hike offering a variety of landscapes, overlooking the Diois valley, without being vertiginous. Some hikers have even spotted vultures here.
