Hiking
Hikes to discover magnificent landscapes
The Alpes de Haute Provence is a hiker's paradise. Here you'll find iconic trails like the GR®653D, which follows the routes to Santiago de Compostela and Rome, or the GR®69 Route, which traces the transhumance. History buffs can follow the GR®406, the famous Route Napoléon. Explore legendary peaks like Brec du Chambeyron, Mont Pelat, and L'Estrop. With your family, opt for themed hikes like Randoland, where your children can become explorer-guides, or set off to explore nature with guides. To combine hiking and culture, follow Andy Goldsworth's mountain art collection.
