Your path will eventually lead you to the Col de Jaillet, with its breathtaking views over the valley and neighboring mountain ranges.
Accessible to hikers of orange level (fairly difficult), this route is also an excellent choice on hot days, thanks to its altitude and shaded areas.
Map available from the tourist office to discover these and other trails.
Whatever your hike, remember to pack cereal bars, plenty of water, sunglasses, sun cream, a small first-aid kit, and clothing suited to the season and weather forecast.
