Ski touring

Le Dévoluy is incontestably one of the massifs in the Southern Alps best suited to cross-country skiing.

Cross-country skiing in the Vallon de Barges, Le Dévoluy (Hautes-Alpes)

Around a beautiful valley perched at a high altitude lie a succession of glens positioned at regular intervals, perfect for mountain skiing.

Idea for a cross-country skiing itinerary: Les Crêtes de Barges

A magnificent hike open to everyone which offers superb panoramic views.
Climb up the crest's  beautiful ledges, and once you arrive at the summit, enjoy suberb  360° panoramic views over Le Dévoluy, Le Champsaur and Le Gapençais.
Set off from the village of L’Enclus (at an altitude of 1,402 metres), climb towards Le Col de Rabou in the eastern part of the Bois Rond.
Climb back up on the right of the television relay station and follow the ridge until you get to the summit of La Plane (at an altitude of 2,316 metres)
Vertical drop: 914 metres
