Tips from the Community
Coming from La Motte-du-Caire, it's only a short climb, which makes the long, beautiful descent on smooth asphalt all the more surprising.

A nice little steep climb, just the way we like them. Don't worry, it's not very long...and thankfully so. The ford at the start was washed away by the torrent, so you have to cross on foot because there's no longer a road for the moment (May 2025)

The Intercommunal Tourist Office of the Hautes Terres de Provence of La Motte-du-Caire is at the initiative of a process of knowledge of the very original territory. Talking rocks are scattered along the paths of the territory. Just stop near the stones and press a button for a voice to come out of the stone and begin to tell. These rocks tell both local and international stories in English and French.
