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.

A short route to get your legs moving as soon as the weather turns fine. No particular difficulty and some lovely views of the mountains surrounding the Trièves!

This walk in the heart of the Trièves region offers some beautiful panoramic views. You are surrounded by the peaks of Dévoluy and Vercors. The route mainly follows beautiful paths and, in part, small roads.

Departure from Treffort (Isère)
A circular hike to do when the boat is not crossing the lake (out of season) or if you want to take your time crossing the footbridges over two days. See my other hike: Drac footbridge hike.
I do not recommend this hike for people who are afraid of heights or have a phobia of falling!

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.

Col des Aiguilles - Return circular via Le Chauvet

Difficult
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.
