La Grande Autane circular

Difficult
Departure from Ancelle (Hautes-Alpes)
Long and difficult hike offered here as a circular route, first through mountain pastures then up steep slopes to the summit.
It can also be done as a round trip, which is shorter but involves a tricky descent to the Col de Combeau.
As a circular loop as described, the landscape and views are different and the slope is easier.
It's up to you.

This hike has been suitable for all ages since 2020. Using the chairlifts (Drouvet 1 and 2 for the outward journey and Roche Rousse for the return journey) makes it easy. The six large lakes are visited on the way down. A variant towards the Col de Freissinières is possible. The landscapes are magnificent, especially at the starting point at the top of Drouvet. The lakes are all very beautiful and diverse.
