Infos & BookingDescription
Passes, larch forests, sublime panoramas, waterfalls and torrents are all landscapes that you will discover during this amazing 4-day trek that goes around the Aiguilles du Chambeyron in Ubaye and makes a detour to Italy.
Without forgetting the essential element of this massif: its lakes, sometimes emerald, sometimes of a deep blue, to be discovered and to admired at the bend of a path.
If you like trekking for several days, I also propose other hiking itineraries in Savoie: the balconies of the Maurienne valley, the high route of Vanoise, a trekking from Étendard to the Aiguilles d'Arves and the tour of the Mont-Cenis lake, but also further afield with an autumn hiking weekend in Piedmont.
