A short drive from St Dalmas le Selvage you will find this beautiful walk through meadows, woodland and up to rocky peaks.

A beautiful walk to a secret valley with a lush green meadow surrounded by rocky mountain peaks.

This is a wild hike with no directional signs, as is often the case in the Alpes de Haute Provence. No major orientation difficulties. It begins with a long descent towards Lac des Sagnes in an area of summer grazing where sheep are present from the end of June. The presence of guard dogs requires vigilance, even if they are not all naturally aggressive. The climb back up to Lac de Pelouse is first through larch trees, then through alpine meadows. Beyond that, you need to join the rocky trail below the Crête de la Tour with a few exposed and somewhat degraded sections until you reach the Col de Pelouse. The final section is not difficult.
