Vallouise - Pré de la Chaumette Mountain Hut
Stage11 of this route. One of the most beautiful and challenging stages of the route, featuring the Aup Martin pass at 2,700 metres and the Pas de la Cavale, the highest point ofthe GR® 54. This stage demands the utmost vigilance and experience of high-mountain hiking. The views are absolutely stunning and incredibly wild. We took the shuttle bus to avoid the 8 km of tarmac road to the car park at Entre-les-Aigues.
Ravin des Serres - Vallonpierre refuge
The hike begins with the ascent of the Pas de la Cavale, which rises to an altitude of 2,735 metres. After this climb, you will reach the Pré de la Chaumette refuge. From there, another climb will take you along the imposing Sirac, passing through the Vallette, Gouiran and Vallonpierre passes. The route ends at the Vallonpierre refuge.
Vallouise - Pré de la Chaumette Mountain Hut
The Col de l'Aup Martin and the Pas de la Cavale from the Onde Valley, leading into the Champoléon Valley.
The Aup Martin – what a pass!
Note: This route is a stage of the Tour de l'Oisans but it is very challenging, particularly in early summer when there is still snow on the Col de l'Aup Martin. For this reason, a diversion has been put in place starting from Vallouise, passing through Puy Saint-Vincent, the Col de la Pousterle and the Fournel valley. You then join the Pas de la Cavale (GR®54A).
Pré de la Chaumette Mountain Hut - Vallonpierre Mountain Hut
The12th stage of this route features three passes to cross, the last of which is particularly technical and difficult.
The panoramic views remain as exceptional as ever, with vistas of the majestic Chaillol, the Sirac and the Champoléon valley. The refuge is set in lush greenery at the bottom of a cirque at the foot of the Sirac and on the shores of the magnificent Lac de Vallonpierre. A campsite in a beautiful meadow at the foot of the Sirac, with a splendid view of the lake.
The Col des Terres Blanches
From Dormillouse to Prapic via the Col des Terres Blanches.
Crossing from Ailefroide to Chambran via the Cime du Paillon
An alpine hike, largely off-trail, through very wild terrain; not particularly difficult but requiring sure-footedness. You’re more likely to encounter chamois than people! Stunning views of the Pelvoux.
Setting off early means you can complete much of the ascent in the shade.
Vallonpierre refuge - Sebeyras lakes
From the Vallonpierre refuge, the hike takes you to the Rif du Sap chapel, then to the charming village of La Chapelle-en-Valgaudémar, where you can stop for refreshments at a local grocery store. The route then crosses the Valgaudémar National Forest before reaching the magnificent lakes of Pétarel and Sebeyras.
Vallonpierre Refuge - La Chapelle-en-Valgaudemar
Here we are at the final stage of this 13-day route around the magnificent Écrins National Park. A downhill stage that takes you to La Chapelle-en-Valgaudemar, where this journey began 13 days earlier. A splendid start to the stage, all the way down to the glacial torrents. The panorama is breathtaking, surrounded by the most beautiful peaks of the southern part of the Écrins, already leaving us with a sense of nostalgia for the past 13 days. A route with no technical difficulty.
Chalet du Gioberney – Vallonpierre Mountain Hut
The sixth stage is a fairly easy climb up to the Vallonpierre Refuge.
This allows you to arrive at the refuge early and, if you wish, carry on to the Col des Chevrettes, where marmots are guaranteed.
Refuge du Clot (Xavier Blanc) – Refuge du Pigeonnier
The fourth stage begins gently through the meadows, watched over by marmots, before reaching a major tourist attraction: the stunning Voile de la Mariée waterfall. Once you’ve passed Lac du Lauzon, you’ll find yourself alone again to enjoy the magnificent Lac Bleu. The Pigeonnier mountain refuge, perched on its promontory, is superb with its large bay windows.
