If you are keen of mountain and want to familiarize yourself with the technical mountaineering and live a unique experience, this is a hike for you ... thrills and panorama beyond reality guaranteed!

 

In spring: Put your skis on in La Grave, or, even better, Villar d’Arène
and take the Côte Longue moraine up to the immense Glacier du Tabuchet (1800m height gain, 6 hours).

In summer: on foot from the Pont des Brebis near Le Pied du Col, 4 km east of Villar d’Arène (1780m height gain, 6 hours). This route starts off on a good path and then continues on rocky outcrops and névés before reaching the Col du Bec, followed by the north arête of the Bec de l’Homme. The Vire Amieux ledge, with its fi xed cables, leads you onto the Glacier du Tabuchet. From this point, crampons and ropes are needed to reach the Eagle rock.

YOU WALK THROUGH THE HEART OF THE ECRINS NATIONAL PARK
The Ecrins massif is an exceptional space, open to all, whose natural, cultural and landscaped heritages are rare. To protect these riches, the heart of the park is materialized by flags painted blue-white-red, where regulations must be observed. Please take note of it when preparing your hike in order to preserve this collective good on the ecrins-parcnational.fr site.
