The Roc de Toulau and the Plateau d'Ambel with its karstic cave
After a slightly steep but easy climb to Roc de Toulau, where the view is magnificent, we will reach the Plateau d'Ambel and its curious karstic cave des Quatre Gorges before climbing to the Tête de la Dame. Return via a good trail and then a wide path.
Scialet des Quatre Gorges circular loop
A hike around the Plateau d'Ambel to explore its hidden depths and vertiginous cliffs. Interesting in all seasons, and equally so when done in the opposite direction.
On horseback across the Ambel Plateau from the Refuge de la Gardiole
A lovely horse ride to explore the Plateau d'Ambel.
No particular difficulty; theGR® markings are very easy to follow.
A vast expanse of pastureland awaits at the summit, along with fantastic views all along the ridges.
Take care, however, in poor visibility (fog, rain), as there is a risk of not seeing the drop-off at the ridges and cliffs.
