Take enough water because there is no water point

Beautiful place in winter

Magical place

The Chanteloube viaduct, located on the Serre-Ponçon lake, is an unusual place. Built for a railway line that was never completed, this partially submerged viaduct offers a fascinating spectacle, with its arches reflected in the turquoise waters of the lake.

The loop to the Joubelle cabin is very pleasant to do, from the lake parking lot.

Connecting the Gapençais and the Durance valley, the Lebraut pass is a magnificent viewpoint over the Serre-Ponçon lake. Small roads that are as discreet as they are panoramic provide access to the heart of resplendent nature.

The Chanteloube viaduct, located in the town of Chorges, emerges like a silent vestige of a bygone era. Started in the early 1900s, it was initially intended to connect Chorges to Barcelonnette by rail. The project was finally abandoned in the 1930s. Each year, in the spring, as the lake swells from melting snow and seasonal rains, the viaduct disappears beneath the waters. However, in winter, when the lake level drops, the viaduct emerges from its aquatic lethargy, revealing its majestic arches and solid pillars.

A pleasant climb that offers a breathtaking view of the Lac de Serre-Ponçon below. The climb is in two parts with a short one kilometer descent in the middle which reduces the average gradient. The climb is ten kilometers long with an average gradient of 5%.
