About
Trail Walking of 11.4 km to be discovered at Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, Hautes-Alpes, Garde-Colombe. This trail is proposed by Camping Les Rives du Lac.
Description
Hiking to do when it's not too hot. It allows to discover the beautiful gorges of Riou, and to bathe there. The most experienced hikers can continue on the ridges of Saint Genis, which offer a magnificent panorama. Departure of the tiny and pretty village of Saint-Genis; parking below the cemetery, then walk up to recover the trail. Many fossils on the way (as in many places in the region.) On the way down, the path is less marked, and sometimes it is marked but do not follow it! So follow the map. At the bottom, we arrive at the stream that we cross on the bridge and we reach the starting point by the small road. If you have not dared to cool off in the stream, you can, by taking the car, join the water of the Riou for a well deserved bath. (refreshments in summer)
