Departure from Peyroules (Alpes-de-Haute-Provence)
A route with a fairly steep climb, rewarding you, once at the summit, with a 360° view of the Southern Alps stretching all the way to the sea. Includes a visit to a chapel and the old village of Peyroules. Above 1,700 metres, there is no longer a clearly marked path; you’ll need to navigate using the GPX file, cairns and tracks on the ground.

Difficult
Departure from Vergons (Alpes-de-Haute-Provence)
A very lovely walk leading to the Pic de Chamatte at an altitude of 1,879 metres. This walk may prove challenging due to the elevation gain for inexperienced walkers. However, there are no technical sections. Only the descent requires a sense of direction. The path, although marked on the map, is barely visible in places. From the summit, a magnificent 360° view awaits you, taking in the Mercantour, the Verdon massifs and Lac du Castillon.

Circuit of the Breis summit and the Rancoumas viewpoint, starting from Trigance

5h 20
Moderate
Departure from Trigance (Var)
A very beautiful walk, best done in spring or autumn. The ascent follows the PR® route up the slope of the Colle de Breis to make the most of the morning sun: this is therefore the opposite direction to the route already published on Visorando. This is followed by a return trip to the Rancoumas viewpoint, which overlooks the Gorges du Verdon. Finally, return via the GR®49 in the afternoon sun, passing through the hamlet of Entreverges and then beneath the rocky outcrop of the Serrière du Preil.
