SUGGESTED HIKE from VILLAR D'ARÈNE
> Discovery itinerary for the day:
– L'Aiguillon (2091 m) + 450 m
A beautiful steady climb to the northwest for an anthology 360° at the top of the Aiguillon, that's what awaits you for this little ski outing. And it will give you wings, ideas for the next outing: look around you, detail summits, valleys, sparkling peaks and they will then haunt your nights.
ANOTHER POSSIBILITY
– Pontet Lake (2000 m) + 350 m
PRACTICAL INFORMATION
> Where to stock up: Grocery store, bazaar and bars in Villar d'Arène.
> Where to sleep: Gîtes, guest houses, hotels.
LA GRAVE SECTOR
La Grave, located at an altitude of 1500 m at the foot of the Meije, has survived the ages while preserving its beauty. The village rightly benefits from the coveted label “The Most Beautiful Villages of France”. As for the landscape, it’s euphoric: you look up and a myriad of sparkling glaciers and sharp peaks reach out to you.
For us hikers, La Grave is a fantastic starting point with the cable car of the Meije which allows you to considerably shorten the approach walks to races, each more magical than the last. With many peaks between 3000 and almost 4000 m, this territory is of course dedicated to high mountains. La Grave, it’s our Chamonix in Oisans… minus the crowds!
