Demoiselles Coiffées

Highlight • Natural Monument

In English, they are called “hoodoos”, in French, they are poetically called “chimneys of fairies” or “demoiselles coiffées”.

These sedimentary rocks have stood the test of time thanks to the hard rock lying above. The result after centuries or even millennia of erosion: these enigmatic columns.

View of Lac de Serre-Ponçon from Puy-Sanières

Highlight • Viewpoint

Still spectacular views of the Serre-Ponçon lake below. The balcony road is less traveled than the road that runs along the lake below opposite.
