La Montagne de Moutet from Notre-Dame de Bois-Vert
In my opinion, this is one of the most beautiful hikes in the area.
It offers views of the Champsaur and Gapençais valleys.
The Tour de Moutet
A wild hike between Ecrins and Dévoluy. Off-trail highlights include pastures, mouflons and a 360° view stretching from the Obiou to the Parpaillon, taking in the great massifs of the Écrins.
You’ll look down over the Chaudun cirque and its history.
Walks near Le Girolet (2079m)
Plateau and Pic de Bure via the Joue du Loup chairlift
The easiest route to explore the Bure massif in summer, ascending via the ski resort’s chairlifts (open one day a week in July and August only). The plateau offers a lunar landscape with the observatory’s satellite dishes, and in clear weather, the view from the Pic de Bure is extraordinary.
The route is described here starting from La Joue du Loup, but there is a similar route starting from SuperDévoluy. Please note: this route is only accessible during the summer opening period of the ski lifts!
Col des Aiguilles - Return circular via Le Chauvet
Most of the route follows theGRP® Tour du Dévoluy trail markedGR®94.
For the return journey, rather than going back the same way, you can vary the route by returning via Small Pass and Le Charvet. This is an off-trail route.
This alternative route must be taken in good visibility and requires the ability to use a map and compass, which is essential for off-trail hiking.
The view from Le Chauvet over Le Dévoluy is magnificent.
