Méolans-Revel walks

An easy route around the Torrent des Arnauds with breathtaking views.

This is a short walk, the main purpose of which is to admire the surrounding mountains, including the Tête de Louis XVI. The village's municipal bread oven, still used by the villagers, bears witness to a time when Rioclar was isolated from the valley.

A beautiful snowshoe hike (or walk in summer) even in heavy snowfall, in a magnificent setting, with the first part in the forest and the second in the mountain pastures.

Circular route around the Séolane.

One of the heads of Louis XVI, still solid, however.

This route allows you to discover the famous Eaux Tortes site starting from the Vallon du Laverq.

A beautiful climb to the mountain pastures and the three lakes of Col Bas through a beautiful forest of larch and Swiss pine trees. IMPORTANT: This hike crosses an area with wetlands that are rich in biodiversity but very fragile and subject to three levels of protection (APPB, ENS, Natura 2000). It is therefore important to preserve them by refraining from crossing them, particularly between Lac du Milieu and Lac Noir, where you must take care to follow the marked trail. Reminder: it is forbidden to light fires, swim in the lakes or camp near the wetlands. Dogs must be kept on a leash. In addition, a chairlift from Montclar arrives at Lac Noir, bringing dozens of walkers to the immediate vicinity of the lake. If you like peace and quiet, it is advisable to avoid the days when this chairlift is in operation. You can find the opening days on the Montclar town hall website or on the "Montclar Domaine Skiable" website.

The unfinished railway project at the beginning of the 20th century left behind some beautiful viaducts and tunnels that are ideal for an unusual hike. The return journey can be made via theGRP® Tour du Lac de Serre-Ponçon. This is an original hike that winds its way through hamlets and abandoned farms, ending in the inhabited hamlets of the commune of Lauzet. Finally, you cross the famous Roman bridge over the Ubaye Gorges.

Site classified by decree of 9 January 1939.Facing the Pas-de-la-Tour ravine, in the heart of a magnificent mountain environment, this natural curiosity is clearly visible from the road at the bottom of the valley. These waterfalls are a popular spot for panoramic views. They can also be explored from the village of Lauzet, along pleasant country trails.

A good walk to work up an appetite! Set off from Pra Loup to the La Dalle en Pente restaurant and return via the Chappe chairlift.

Hike starting from La Frache, a hamlet above Saint-Pons and Barcelonnette. This is a very pretty hike with beautiful views, but it is not recommended in bad weather.Moderator's rating: difficult, between (9) and (10), see reviews

This day-long circular hike, where you are unlikely to encounter too many other hikers, even in summer, takes place largely in open countryside, allowing you to walk alongside some of the peaks south of Lake Serre-Ponçon, including Pouzenc (2,898m).

A very varied hike. Larch woods, a circular path with views of the Embrunais and Lake Serre-Ponçon; the Cirque de Bragousse and its Demoiselles, not to mention the Col de la Rousse and its mountain pastures and the Pic de Charance with its view of the Cirque de Morgon. An alternative to the very popular Grand Morgon climb. Here you can see marmots and chamois (if you're observant enough).

A ridge walk with breathtaking views of the Grande Séolane and Chapeau de Gendarme massifs. A lovely reward after the effort.

A very pleasant circular above Les Orres resort, allowing you to discover a beautiful lake, Sainte-Marguerite, and the springs that feed Les Orres, named Jerusalem.

If you are in the Serre Ponçon area, this hike is well worth the climb. You will walk through a very quiet valley that is rarely visited, even in the height of summer, inhabited only by marmots and a few chamois, and hundreds of alpine flowers of all kinds in July! There is an impressive view of Serre-Ponçon once you reach the pass.

This is a short hike, but it can be challenging in places, especially towards the end. Come on, let's go; enjoy the walk... A beautiful waterfall to cool off in summer.

The first section follows the “Plein les yeux” route through a larch forest to reach a viewpoint offering views of the Tête de la Mazelière with its ice falls. Then, via an ascent along a wide forest track, reach the wild Eyssalette valley where, beneath the ice, lies the Lac de Sainte-Marguerite, surrounded by numerous peaks.

This is a great hike that will leave you in awe of the magnificent landscape at Pic de Morgon. What's more, this route offers great variety.

The route crosses the superb Boscodon State Forest, continues through the Cirque de Morgon with its small lake, and ends with a descent in wide hairpin bends through the forest on the edge of the Cirque de Bragousse. Along the way, several viewpoints offer splendid views of the Lac de Serre-Ponçon, the Pic de Morgon and the Cirque de Bragousse.

A beautiful, challenging circular hike for those who want to discover the Cirque de Morgon and enjoy one of the most beautiful views of Lake Serre-Ponçon and the surrounding peaks. Autumn, with its colours, is the best time to visit.

A long hike with many facets. A lunar landscape through the Cirque de Bragousse, a magnificent meadow through the Cirque du Morgon with its small sacred lake (Lac Saint-Pierre), if you are lucky enough to see it full of water, and its countless marmots, and finally an unforgettable panorama from the Pic du Morgon.

Belle randonnée dans la Forêt Domaniale de Boscodon sur un flanc du Pic de Morgon avec de superbes vues sur le Cirque de Bragousse.

A very pleasant hike in the mid-mountains with beautiful views of Lake Serre-Ponçon, Embrun and the Aiguilles de Chabrières. The hamlet of Saint-Jean is well worth a visit with its church, cemetery and old municipal hearses (built and restored by ASPEC).

This large forest between Lake Serre-Ponçon and the long ridge that ends at Pic de Morgon offers dozens of trails to explore. Here is one that runs close to the lake and takes you through tiny hamlets nestled in the forest.

A short hike offering the chance to explore the beautiful rocky massif of Roche Close. The area around the Cabane des Mulets offers an opportunity to spot marmots.
