Col de la Vallée Étroite

Highlight • Mountain Pass

A cross marks this pass, located at an altitude of 2,438 meters, at the foot of Mount Thabor. The Col de la Vallée Étroite was part of the Maginot Line between 1928 and 1940. These days, you don't see many soldiers, but a good number of mountain enthusiasts!

Lake Peyron

Highlight • Lake

It is a superb small mountain lake located at 2,440 meters above sea level. Its turquoise waters mixed with chlorophyll green and mineral gray are incredible!

Méandes Pass

Highlight • Other

It is a pretty passage at 2,727 meters above sea level. If you are on your way to Mount Tabor, you are not very far! We already have a superb panorama of the surrounding peaks.

Mount Thabor

Highlight • Summit

From the top of its 3,178 meters, Mount Tabor dominates the Cerces massif and the Étroite valley. Until 1947, the summit marked the border between France and Italy. The Treaty of Paris changed this and Mount Tabor has since been entirely French.

However, it is not the highest peak in the area: Pic du Thabor, just a few steps away, rises to 3,207 meters above sea level. In any case, the view is exceptional!
