November 11, 2022,Les Lacs de Jovet depuis Notre-Dame de la Gorge + partie en parapente
Easy and family hike!
The difficulty lies in the distance to be covered.
Wide path and slightly inclined slope.


This actual track includes the descent by paraglider from the summit to the lake and from the lake to a little further down the valley.
See this link to find the descent path only on foot:
