Manteyer walks

The Circuit des Évêques (named after a place you will pass near) is a very popular route in La Roche-des-Arnauds. It will allow you to discover the cable bridge and the Corréo plateau with interesting views of the Tête de Clappe, the Pic de Bure and the Pic de Ceüze. This circuit is also selected as a mountain bike circuit.

A short family circular on the heights of La Roche-des-Arnauds, with waterfalls, a scenic path and, finally, the remains of a castle offering a view of the village!

A remarkable circuit on the Ceüse mountain.

Starting from Lake Pelleautier, enjoy a pleasant hike at the foot of Montagne de Céüse along the long forest road dominated by cliffs and offering superb panoramic views.

A pleasant little walk above Gap, between the pine and oak forest, then along the Drac Canal. Without any difficulty, it offers a beautiful view of Céüse and the mountains south of Gap, including the Lure mountain.

This loop runs along much of the foot of the Céüze cliff, then reaches the summit via the Pas du Loup before descending along the ridges.

This short hike offers panoramic views of the Gap valley and, above all, the Céüse mountain.

After taking the famous Sentier des Bans balcony path, we will cross the Petit Buech to return via a small balcony path on the other side before reaching Rabou via a small Roman bridge. There are a few tricky sections on the balconies, especially on the way back. This is where the difficulty lies. Not suitable for those who are afraid of heights.

From the Rabou car park, 15 km from Gap, this hike is partly off-trail and offers exceptional views of the surrounding peaks.

Very beautiful hike on the Bans trail to the old village of Chaudun

A short family hike in the Montmaur plain.

Hike around Furmeyer, best done in May or June, but can be done in any season. This trail combines botany and landscapes.

1 November 2025: a user reports => this concerns the route between the wps (6), (7), and (8).Geoportal (Biotope protection decrees) (!) WARNING (!) This hike crosses the perimeter of the prefectural decree for the protection of the Plateau de Bure biotope, in which it is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN to leave the marked trails, under penalty of a 4th class fine of €750. For the time being, the agents of the French Office for Biodiversity, responsible for enforcing this decree, are taking a preventive approach, but they will surely soon move on to enforcement. Access to the Plateau de Bure off the beaten track. This alpine hike via the Pas de Paul offers an unusual and wild setting, through devolved steps, vertical corridors marked by large staircases. This variant allows you to reach the westernmost peaks of the Bure plateau, the Tête des Pras Arnaud and the Tête de la Cluse, before the Pic de Bure.

The Dévoluy massif offers a contrast of colours between the pure blue of the sky and the ochre of the rocks in its trilogy of peaks (Obiou, Grand Ferrand, Pic de Bure). Correction: the elevation gain is around 1,300 metres

A fairly wild trail that generally follows the bank of the torrent, offering a beautiful natural atmosphere and views of small waterfalls. The outward route is accessible to families with children, mostly in the shade with the coolness of the torrent.

Between marlstone and forests, a hike to the south of Gap.

Most of the walk is along the Canal du Drac, which allows you to discover many of the structures designed to channel and distribute water to the surrounding farms, and also offers sections with panoramic views.

Starting from Charance, the climb up the breach and to the peak offers breathtaking views of the Gapençais basin, the Durance valley and the Pic de Bure.

Climb up to the breach to enjoy the view from the ridges of the Charance mountain (including the Col and Tête de Guizière), before descending via the Col de la Côte Gelée. Although most of the climb is through forest, the ridges and descent are more exposed to the sun.

Climb up to the Brèche de Charance to enjoy the panoramic view from the ridge to the Col de Guizière, then descend through the forest. An ideal route for the summer months, just above the town of Gap.

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

Circular loop above Tallard, mostly through pine forest.
