Just like the walk to Jas Lacroix, this is a walk that is easy to do with children and for anyone who wants to take a nice walk with not too many altimeters. Like the walk to Jas Lacroix, this walk also starts at the Entre les Aygues car park at the end of the valley of the L'Onde.



The walk leads to Refuge

Very easy walk. At the parking lot, a yellow sign indicates 2 hours for the refuge, someone has written 30 minutes after that. With 2 children aged 10 and 12 it took us 1:21h at a nice pace. The charm is especially the view and the nice cabin at the end
