Right at the start of the path (which is a forest track at this point), there is a sign warning of danger due to rockfalls (which recently necessitated the rescue of hikers in difficulty by helicopter). We continued along this forest road, which then becomes a narrower path, until we reached the foot of the cliffs, where there was a risk of rockfalls, and we turned back without hesitation. It is therefore important to note that, at least for the time being, the destination of the walk, the "Pas de Pertuson", is inaccessible. This is a little frustrating, as the view must be magnificent. However, it is better not to put anyone in danger, neither hikers nor potential rescuers.

A short, easy hike that is ideal for families, especially on very hot days.
Almost entirely in the woods, which is very pleasant.
The last 100 metres are a little steeper.

Short hike but with a steep incline.
Difficult for people who are not physically fit.
The view of the Isère valley and the Chambarran are the only attractions of this walk.

Hike advertised as EASY, but I would say DIFFICULT because of the steep climbs, with lots of stones and rocks to climb over to reach the pass. I would recommend that hikers have strong legs and good stamina because I set off with seven people and only three reached the Pertuson pass, four of whom turned back because it was too difficult for them.
Otherwise, the view from the summit is fantastic.

A pleasant and interesting short route during very sunny periods, as most of it takes place in the forest. The last kilometre is quite physically demanding as it is very steep, and good footwear is recommended.
A pleasant outing.
