HIKING SUGGESTION
> Discovery itinerary for the day:
– Alpe du Pin refuge (1805 m) + 530 m
WITH NIGHT IN REFUGE
Day 1: Climb to the refuge + 530 m
Day 2: Classic routes from the refuge:
– Lauranoure Head (3325 m) + 1420 m
You will first have to cross the beautiful and fiery Vénéon to then climb towards the Alpe du Pin refuge, after having collected the keys at the Saint Christophe café. This stop before climbing to the Tête de Lauranoure is worth the ski outing in itself.
PRACTICAL INFORMATION
> Where to get supplies: Bar/restaurant in St-Christophe.
> Where to sleep: Gîtes and rooms in St-Christophe.
VENEON SECTOR
Once you enter the Vénéon Valley, you will be enchanted for life... It is a real hiking gem. The possibilities are immense and the beauty of the place will sometimes make you snowplough on the way down in order to better enjoy the landscapes...
Homeland of Father Gaspard, the victor of the Meije In 1877, the valley offers a rugged appearance with a tender heart that must be sought after by taking one's time. Once the legendary Bérarde road opens, the day possibilities multiply like the famous hotcakes and end late with high-altitude itineraries.
As for the possibilities from a refuge, they are simply endless. Here we offer you ideas to try without moderation, but you will see, ski touring in the Vénéon is like peanuts: once you start, you can't stop. So you can also invent your own sequences, decline an outing over several days, in a star from one of the Vénéon refuges, in a raid... in short, the spatulas quiver as soon as you enter the homeland of Father Gaspard.
