Moderate
Departure from Mayres-Savel (Isère)
This walk is a variation on the classic tour of the Himalayan footbridges of Lake Monteynard, which does not require a boat trip (for a fee) to return to the starting point. In addition, this route takes you to the Pas du Berlioz (very beautiful view of the lake) and the Pont de Brion. It is hardly any longer than taking the boat, as you don't need to go all the way to the pier, which is quite far away. However, part of the route is a return trip.

+4,718 ft
-4,718 ft
10 hrs
Extremely difficult
Departure from Tréminis (Isère)
The scree from the summer of 2024 makes this route extremely difficult and demanding.
Brought back into the spotlight by Pascal Sombardier’s publications, the Sentier de la Baronne crosses the Petites Charances, a suspended balcony at the foot of the western face of the Dévoluy (stretching from the Grand Ferrand to the Obiou), above Tréminis.
It is a long and demanding route, not necessarily very technical, but one where you must take great care with every step.
The view stretches westwards, from the Chartreuse to Mont Ventoux, via the eastern face of the Vercors.
