Departure from Molines-en-Queyras (Hautes-Alpes)
A wild climb to Pic Foréant via equally wild ridges. This is followed by a visit to several lakes, each different in size and charm. All this at the foot of the Pain de Sucre and the Crêtes de la Taillante.

This walk offers an exceptional panorama from the Col de l’Eychassier over the three lakes: Eychassier, Foréant and Egogéou, and the Crête de la Taillante, which is absolutely sublime in its purity and simplicity. A magnificent high-mountain walk that starts at high altitude, immediately offering spectacular panoramic views of Mont Viso and the Pain de Sucre. Plus, you have the chance to set foot in Italy.

Departure from Molines-en-Queyras (Hautes-Alpes)
The third stage of this journey presents no major difficulties, with exceptional views around the lakes. Only the descent from the Col Vieux to the Refuge de la Monta quickly takes its toll on your legs.
The abundance of flora makes this stage even more beautiful.

Departure from Saint-Véran (Hautes-Alpes)
A foray into the Haute Ubaye to round off the route in style at its highest point. With the option of watching the sunset from the summit of the Bric de Rubren.
The route deliberately moves away from the border to take the easiest route up the hill.

Here, the names change from white to black with great dexterity. Indeed, the passage from Queyras, Refuge de la Blanche, to Ubaye is via the Col de la Noire. Original, isn't it?
