크리솔로‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 산길

It marks the Italian-French border and can be reached from Italy in an hour and 45 minutes from the Jervis refuge, with a path that climbs through the woods without particular difficulties, to finally emerge onto alpine meadows.

Then it's like a high plateau, and from here you can roll down towards the Ubaye Valley via Longet without much difficulty. I initially planned to reach the Ubaye Valley via the Noir, but it was so steep to push that I quickly switched to the Blanchet/Longet route. The two passes start more or less 100 meters from the lake. I can't imagine that going down to the lake would be any fun on the Noir either.

The altitude of Col Blanchet needs to be corrected, it is 2897 metres

A quick stop at the Monta refuge on the way down, a nice little Queyras beer

Done in two days it remains less demanding with an overnight stay at the Vallanta refuge

At the pass itself, there is a small customs post, restored in the 50s but unfortunately already in ruins again. This pass was a high place of passage, very busy, between the valley of the Prá (Italian) and the valley of the Guil (French). The landscapes are sumptuous. It is recommended, if you are on the French side, to have the most varied views, to go up from the Echalp, and go back down towards the Monta, then take the path along the Guil to reach the Echalp. Very beautiful hike, path without any technical difficulty.

Iconic point of passage to go up to Pian del Re, ideal for a stop with refreshment in the extraordinary Alpine scenery of Monviso.

At this point you are almost at the top. Take a picture and then make the last stretch of climb.
