Hiking - Combe Oursière

A hike with the colours of the larch, taking you to the small hanging valley of Combe Oursière.

”Early in the morning, everything is quiet in the Combe Oursière valley. After making our way through a larch forest with its shimmering colours, and then crossing calluna heaths that turn red in autumn, we arrive in a stonier world. At the bottom of the corrie, chamois graze peacefully on the scree herbs."


Marion Digier, regional park keeper in Valbonnais
