Departure from Saint-Julien-en-Beauchêne (Hautes-Alpes)
Ascent to the Tête de Garnesier, a viewpoint overlooking La Jarjatte and La Cluse, and return via the Tête des Ormans and the Tour Carrée. The climb takes place in the magnificent Durbon forest and the chamois meadows below the Col de Plate-Contier before tackling the mineral world of the Dévoluy ridges. At the summit, the landscape is breathtaking.
The return journey, partly off-trail, follows the edge of the cliff leading to the Tour Carrée.

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.
