Second stage of the circular route from Blieux to Mont Chiran. You leave the Mont Chiran Observatory and follow the ridges northwards towards L’Hauteur (1,777 m), the day’s highest point. After taking in the views of the Mercantour and the Observatory, you’ll gradually descend towards the Col de Reibert (1,464 m) and then follow the long stony track back to the village of Blieux. A day with a gentler elevation gain, but still very open and offering a change of scenery, which brings this tour of the Verdon peaks to a magnificent close.
