Uvernet-Fours walks

A good walk to work up an appetite! Set off from Pra Loup to the La Dalle en Pente restaurant and return via the Chappe chairlift.

A circular hike to one of the most beautiful viewpoints in the Ubaye Valley, ascending via the magnificent western path and descending via the eastern path. ⚠️ Please read the practical information carefully before undertaking this hike.

A lovely circular alpine hike starting from the Super-Sauze ski resort, with an ascent of the Chapeau de Gendarme.

A walk in the hills above Faucon-de-Barcelonnette offering views of the valley’s peaks: Grande Séolane, Chapeau de Gendarme, Croix de l’Alpe... The walk is mainly along a small tarmac road. A footpath allows you to shorten the road sections. We walked after snowfall and chose to be cautious, i.e. we took the road. The snow made the landscape even more beautiful.

A round trip to this promontory offers a unique view of the entire Ubaye Valley, from the bell tower of Méolans-Revel to the Pas de la Reyssole. Please note: at (5), the markings become difficult to read and the passage itself is technical.

A ridge walk with breathtaking views of the Grande Séolane and Chapeau de Gendarme massifs. A lovely reward after the effort.

This lovely route offers superb views of the Ubaye Valley, the Pain de Sucre and the Chapeau de Gendarme. A mix of woodland and meadows, and a hidden wetland area off the path. Moderator’s note : reviews of this hike suggest that a GPS device or the Visorando app may be useful Warning! Changing vegetation and the lack of signposting make this walk unpredictable if you do not feel confident navigating terrain that is sometimes difficult and off-trail. Rely on your eyes (traces of previous passage, topography), a 1:25,000 map (which will give you a larger viewing area than a GPS screen) and your GPS (to know where you are and how to orient your map).

Climb to the summit of Rochegrand, with magnificent views of the Allos valley and the surrounding peaks.

Discover the Sources du Verdon, finishing at the Cabane de la Sestrière.

This beautiful alpine walk will take you through a beautiful, uncrowded valley, along a path that is sometimes steep. Cliffs, torrents, waterfalls, and perhaps the chance to see a mountain goat.

Starting from the Pont de l'Abrau district at the entrance to the Foux d'Allos resort, this hike will first take you through the undergrowth and then out into open countryside with breathtaking views.

An easy route around the Torrent des Arnauds with breathtaking views.

Starting from the Val d'Allos - La Foux resort, you can follow the route that takes you to this pretty little mountain lake, surrounded by larch trees.

Circular route around the Séolane.

This is a short walk, the main purpose of which is to admire the surrounding mountains, including the Tête de Louis XVI. The village's municipal bread oven, still used by the villagers, bears witness to a time when Rioclar was isolated from the valley.

A lovely, easy walk along the Ubaye with views of the surrounding mountains.

A lovely walk, best done when the larch trees turn yellow and ochre. It is very varied with a well-marked path and presents no major difficulty. The only slightly tricky section is the crossing of the Riou de la Saume, a small log bridge without a railing.

A beautiful hike in a wild environment, with no technical difficulties despite 50% of the route being off-trail. Orientation is not a problem either, despite the few cairns along the route; just follow the contours of the terrain and the streams at the edge of the meadows.The Visorando app may be useful.

This hike offers beautiful views of Jausiers and the iconic peaks of the Ubaye Valley (Chapeau de Gendarme, Massif des Séolanes). This hike is not particularly difficult, despite a few steep ascents and descents and some exposed sections. (see practical information section) Much of the hike takes place in the forest. You will also cross former agricultural areas. You will pass in front of the Château des Magnans, an architectural curiosity in Jausiers. Beware of rockfalls and a tricky passage between (4) and (:5). Read the reviews for an alternative route.

Second part of the circular. This second stage will take you to the village of Allos, starting from Mont Pelat, via the Trou de l'Aigle, the Cimet and its many waterfalls, including the Cascade du Pich and the Bois de Vacheresse.

The summit of the Estrop massif at an altitude of 2,961 metres.

This hike in the Grande Cayolle, which is part of the heart of the Mercantour massif, is not difficult. It offers varied landscapes ranging from forest to mountain pastures, then to the mineral world of the north face of Mont Pelat and the surrounding ridges.

A superb hike in the Mercantour National Park, with a beautiful ridge leading to a summit over 3,000 metres high. Le Cimet, neighbouring Le Pelat and about thirty metres lower, offers a magnificent panorama on a clear day. The hike starts from the Vieux Brec bridge on the Col de la Cayolle road.

A lovely walk above La Condamine-Châtelard. It’s fairly easy and offers a wide variety of scenery, both in the immediate surroundings and as you discover the wider area as you gain height and view it from different angles. The vegetation varies considerably depending on the section, and for a walk of around 4–4½ hours, this is a real bonus;

A beautiful day's hike. Varied landscapes, snowfields, scree, lakes, marmots, chamois, everything you need to have a good time. Please note that you will be hiking in the heart of the Mercantour National Park. Be sure to comply with the regulations in force.

A very accessible 3,000-metre peak with magnificent views of Lac d'Allos and a 360° panorama. The hike is superb, with lakes, marmots and chamois along the route.
