Estoublon walks

Magnificent gorges, especially in autumn. The climb up to the Chapelle Saint-André is a 2km round trip, but the view from the top is well worth the diversions. You will pass through the remains of the hamlet of Valbonnette. A little further on, another detour of around a hundred metres, to see the ruins of a house, where a large round pillar has remained in its centre, still with the notches used to fix the wooden beams on two levels.

Very beautiful hike to do between April and October.

A rich and varied route with a climb through the forest followed by a summit offering a magnificent panoramic view stretching from Montagne Sainte-Victoire to the Massif des Écrins, taking in all the foothills of the Digne Pre-Alps and Mont Ventoux.

This is a superb hike, perfect for a family outing. It is not particularly difficult and offers breathtaking views of the Valensole plateau, the Verdon, Lake Sainte Croix, the Southern Alps, the Baronnies and Mont Ventoux.

A journey to the end of the world, ideal for lovers of nature and tranquillity. And yet we are in the PACA region, in the heart of Haute-Provence, in a wild environment where you can discover the ancient village of Le Poil (in the 19th century, the commune had 350 inhabitants, including more than a hundred in the village).

A very beautiful, easy route through ancient lands in the wild lavender country.

Moustiers Sainte Marie is worth a visit, but the route through the hills is a remarkable way to enjoy this very pleasant plateau.

Botanical trail leading to the Belvédère de Tréguier, with a magnificent view of the Lac de Sainte-Croix and the Ravin d'Angouire at the end

This is a short loop, suitable for horse riding, which follows part of the Trail des Cathelières de Mallemoisson route. There is a quick alternative route to climb up to Vieil Aiglun and then return to the loop.

Although not very high, the Cousson dominates the region because it is an isolated peak. This gentle walk will take you to the original St-Michel Chapel on its perch, then to the southern summit with its stunning view. This walk offers excellent value for money in terms of the view/difficulty of the climb! Ideal for families. Allow 3 to 3½ hours for the walk, no more. There are no surprises.

A lovely, not too long walk with beautiful views of the Durance and Bléone valleys.

A magnificent, varied and challenging loop offering superb views of the Verdon Gorge, the Pont du Galetas and the Lac de Sainte-Croix, accompanied by vultures soaring high above the cliffs. See practical information regarding difficulties and vertiginous passages.

This hike leads to a stunning viewpoint over the Lac de Sainte-Croix and the Verdon Gorges.

A pleasant hike in a beautiful setting with no difficulties. Just for relaxation. This hike complements the Portail de Blieux hike described on the website.

An easy, often shaded walk for the whole family. Superb view of Digne and its thermal baths from the belvedere.

A magnificent ridge trail with superb views over the Bléone valley and Digne-les-Bains, as well as the Asse valley. Its long limestone cliff stretches from south to north for nearly seventeen kilometres, with the Pic de Couard (1,988 metres) at its northern end.

Long north-south oriented ridge, the Barre des Dourbes ridge separates the basin of Digne-les-Bains from the Barrême syncline. Rising in stages over twenty kilometres, culminating Pic de Couar some 1988 m above sea level.

A hike in Pays du Verdon that takes ancient Roman roads, runs alongside an abandoned village and a chapel sheltered by rocks with magnificent landscapes.
