Gap

Highlight • Settlement

The city of Gap is ideally located geographically to benefit from maximum sunshine. They say there are over 300 days of sunshine a year in Gap!

It is located in a wide flat valley and is surrounded by mountains. The Charance peak and the Gleiz peak which dominate the city reach almost 2,000 meters in altitude.

As far as leisure is concerned, the domain and the Charance lake are backed by the mountain which overlooks the town. Do not hesitate to come and discover this magnificent place of 220 hectares just 10 minutes from downtown Gap. This city is well served.

Serre-Ponçon Dam

Highlight • Monument

The desire to establish a dam to tame the tumultuous waters of the Durance dates back to the 19th century. The creation of the lake marked the beginning of significant economic and tourism growth for the region. The site has quickly become an essential tourism destination in the Southern Alps. This work therefore makes Serre-Ponçon one of the largest artificial lakes in France and one of the largest earthen dams in Europe.

Lebraut Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

A pleasant climb that offers a breathtaking view of the Lac de Serre-Ponçon below.

The climb is in two parts with a short one kilometer descent in the middle which reduces the average gradient. The climb is ten kilometers long with an average gradient of 5%.
