Plateau de Chambran

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Chambran plateau, known as Chambran, has the label of natural park and thus constitutes an area of ecological, fauna and flora interest. This status means it is strongly protected. The landscapes there are fantastic. If it is the starting point for many hikes to the peaks, it is also enough to be a superb hiking destination.

Lac de l'Eychauda

Highlight • Lake

Lake Eychauda is a natural lake of glacial origin. It is one of the largest lakes in the Écrins massif. It is also located in the heart of the Écrins National Park and thus constitutes a refuge of choice for biodiversity. Its milky appearance, fed by meltwater from the Séguret Foran glacier, makes it easily identifiable.

The walk starts at the car park at the end of the Chambran valley. The route to here is already beautiful.
