A hike to a 3,000-metre peak, offering magnificent views of Mont Viso, the high peaks of the Ubaye and the Écrins, with the chance to discover some lovely lakes.
A route with a few exposed sections, one of which requires you to use your hands.

A foray into the Haute Ubaye to round off the route in style at its highest point. With the option of watching the sunset from the summit of the Bric de Rubren.
The route deliberately moves away from the border to take the easiest route up the hill.

On the second day of this trip, the plan is to walk the Tour de la Tête des Toillies and finish the day with a long walk back to Le Raux.

Here, the names change from white to black with great dexterity. Indeed, the passage from Queyras, Refuge de la Blanche, to Ubaye is via the Col de la Noire. Original, isn't it?

The third stage of this journey presents no major difficulties, with exceptional views around the lakes. Only the descent from the Col Vieux to the Refuge de la Monta quickly takes its toll on your legs.
The abundance of flora makes this stage even more beautiful.

Departure from Saint-Paul-sur-Ubaye (Alpes-de-Haute-Provence)
A very long day criss-crossing the border. But what breathtaking scenery! And you won’t be bothered by the neighbours... there’s little chance of coming across other two-legged creatures. But perhaps some ibex, vultures, including (apparently) a pair of bearded vultures.

This is the second stage ofthe GR®®58, but it takes a variant route via the Col de Saint-Véran or the Col de la Cavale and includes an ascent to an altitude of 3,000 metres at the Pic de Caramantran. There’s a magnificent view of Mount Viso at the highest point of this route. At the start of the season, there were still plenty of snowfields. This is a very wild route, which I recommend as an alternative to the Col de Chamoussière path, which tends to be quite busy.
