ITINERARY
From the last parking lot at the station, at the top of Rue de Piégut, take the track leading into the Piégut forest. After the first bend, continue straight ahead at the intersection. You'll come out of the forest and find yourself near the tracks. Make sure you stay on the right track. Once on the heights, near the ridge, turn right towards Les Sûres. You'll be able to enjoy a panoramic view of the Oisans peaks and valleys. You can also enjoy a bite to eat.
On the way back, the itinerary takes the same route as on the outward journey, but it is also possible to return via the Sûres ascent.
