Le Caire walks

Very pretty summit with a 360° view. From Mont Ventoux to the Écrins and from Dévoluy to the Monges massif. The route is varied, with very little tarmac, forest tracks and trails. The climb is very pleasant among the oak and box trees.

This hike has two contrasting sections: the start and the end take place on trails and pastoral tracks, which lend themselves to daydreaming. Crossing the ridges becomes technical (without major difficulties) as you approach the summit of Jalinier, with no real path but a passage open in the vegetation and the rocky ridge of the summit. With an unexpected exit to pass the summit bastion. See practical information regarding the final section of the Jalinier summit.

An easy, shaded and varied hike that follows a small stream to an old aqueduct hidden in the vegetation. The circular hike offers beautiful views of the valley and the surrounding peaks.

A spring walk with panoramic views of the Montagne d’Aujour and the Ceüse cliff, all the way to Bure and the old village of Chaillol!

The Serre de Malamort ridge is a remarkable balcony offering superb views, particularly of Dévoluy, Les Écrins and the Durance valley. The route often passes through woodland, so you can enjoy the beautiful colours of autumn.

A varied hike visiting the villages of La Saulce, Lardier and Valença, crossing the vast forests of the Bois de la Pinée. The highlight is the view from Sainte-Croix, a true promontory overlooking the Durance valley.

Hike above Claret, on the border between the Alpes de Provence and the Hautes-Alpes.

A walk starting from Venterol, mainly through woodland, with views of the Écrins (to the north), the Ubaye (to the east) and the Dévoluy (to the north-west). A short stretch along the ridge to the summit of Montsérieux, which offers a beautiful panorama of the Durance valley, the Champsaur, the Dévoluy and the Dormillouse massif.

The walk takes place in a beech forest and the highest point of this hike, above Gigors—the Tête de la Plane—is the reward for a pleasant but steep climb. The view over the Turriers plain is superb and is complemented by an orientation board describing the surrounding peaks.

This family walk crosses the hill of Saint-Abdon, on the northern edge of which Tallard Castle was built, following the ridge. Please note that some sections run alongside the cliff. It offers magnificent views over the Durance valley, the Montagne de Céüse and the Pic de Bure. The return route takes you across the plain, on the Durance side, past orchards, vineyards and allotments.

Starting from the pretty village of Valavoire, enjoy a walk along the ridge with superb 360° views and a visit to the curious site of the Château de la Mole.

Circular loop above Tallard, mostly through pine forest.

Loop above Tallard via Ville Vieille, which was the old village.

Ascent to the Rochers de Hongrie via the forest track.

La Petite Céüse, a summit well known to walkers, takes on a whole new dimension when approached from the hamlet of Les Combes, with some unusual sections.

A stunning viewpoint overlooking the Durance and all the iconic peaks and mountain ranges in the surrounding area (Ceüze, Bure, Ecrins, Morgon, Ubaye, Monges...). A route through deciduous woodland, which lets the sun through in early spring and provides shade in summer.

Discover the treasures of Remollon, a village steeped in history and natural beauty. Nestled in a valley shaped by glaciers and the River Durance, this region offers the perfect setting for a family getaway. Go for a hike to admire unique sights such as the ‘petrifying’ waterfall, the fascinating ‘demoiselles coiffées’ rock formations, the majestic Remollon Dome from which the Saint-Roch Chapel rises, and the peaceful banks of the Durance. Stroll through the narrow streets of the old town and immerse yourself in the rich and eventful history of this charming village, designated a ‘remarkable heritage site’. Let yourself be captivated by its rich wine-growing heritage and soak up its authentic atmosphere. Information panels featuring QR codes are dotted along the route, offering you an interactive and enriching experience. An invitation to explore and be amazed awaits you at every turn!

A lovely family walk, allowing you to stroll at the foot of the ‘Demoiselles Coiffées’ and then, from the village’s terraces, enjoy magnificent views over the wooded valley, the vineyards, the three lakes of Rochebrune and, on the horizon, the Parpaillon, Trois Évêchés and Digne Pre-Alps mountain ranges.
