Saint-Sauveur walks

A lovely loop walk, fairly well shaded, but still offering numerous views along most of the route. The view from the summit is remarkable.

Another way to discover Embrun. Walk on the rock from the viewpoint, then under the rock with its gardens and canals, a short detour to discover the Durance before completing the circular route in Embrun via the cathedral, the Maison des Chanonges, and the Tour Brune.

A very pleasant walk in a beautiful forest, enjoying the shade in summer or the beautiful autumn colours.

A lovely little walk, almost entirely flat, which will take you from the shores of Lake Serre-Ponçon to the foot of the Embrun cliff. Views of the lake and the gardens and orchards at the foot of the cliff.

Embrun is a town located in the heart of the Durance Valley. Rich in history, it is located not far from Lake Serre-Ponçon. There is a small lake next to it. Walking around it is a pleasant stroll, with views of the surrounding mountains, including Pic de Morgon and Mont Guillaume. It is a walk that can be enjoyed with young children.

The summit of Le Méale offers a beautiful view of Embrunnais, Parpaillon and Serre-Ponçon. Most of the route is through forest on a beautiful trail. What's more, it can be done from May to mid-November.

An easy hike starting from Mélezet with lovely views of the village and Les Orres resort. The route follows the old Baratier irrigation canal for about 1.5km.

A pretty little lake in a green setting above Embrun and at the foot of the Tête de l'Hivernet (2,824 m).

The ascent of Mont Guillaume and its ridges via the Sentier des Pépinières trail from the Bourlinche car park.

This is a pleasant route to one of the main and most beautiful viewpoints of Lake Serre-Ponçon. Due to the large number of intersections, I recommend using the Visorando app.

In the foothills of Mont Guillaume, a short hike through the forest overlooking Puy-Sanières and Puy Saint-Eusébe, with a breathtaking view over Lac de Serre-Ponçon.

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.

Mont Orel overlooks Embrun. It can be reached via the Col de la Coche. Walk along the peaks to the crosses. Magnificent view of the Lac de Serre-Ponçon, the surrounding valleys and the Écrins in the distance. A gentler descent via the Pra Leydon chapel. A hike that ends with a contemplative stroll through the Saluces Forest. A very quiet hike apart from a few chamois at the summit. The only slight difficulty is finding the cairns in the mountain pastures.

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).

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

Panoramic view of Lake Serre Ponçon from the Pic du Morgon (2,324 m).A family hike that can test your legs on the last part.

Hike along the Reyssas irrigation canal. To maintain a steady gradient, the canal passes through some unlikely and beautiful places. Admire the work of our ancestors. Discover abandoned farms. Hike through the forest, including a majestic larch grove. Beautiful views of Lake Serre-Ponçon. This hike requires a bit of agility (crossing the Coulet torrent) and balance (walking on a narrow path along the canal). From 12 years old.

A very pretty little mountain lake full of freshness.

A short, easy family hike. Two points of interest: an art trail and, at the end, a beautiful waterfall.

A very varied family walk with beautiful views of Lake Serre-Ponçon. Waterfalls, pretty forest with beautiful clearings, canal along which you walk and two small abandoned hamlets.

The walk begins with a stroll through a beautiful forest and ends with a splendid view of Lake Serre Ponçon.

This is a beautiful route with no real difficulties, offering magnificent scenery along most of the way. The 360° view from the Homme de Pierre viewpoint is truly spectacular. The Martinat ridge also offers superb panoramic views.
