Hiking - Lac Gignoux

This lake stretches over almost 2 hectares in the middle of the mineral landscape of the Chenaillet massif.
The ridge dominating the lake to the north marks the border with Italy, a hike that is easy to access and offers a magnificent view over the Cerveyrette valley.
This itinerary lies at the edge of the Natura 2000 site Rochebrune - Izoard - Cerveyrette Valley. Although the route itself is not within a protected site, it is essential to preserve it by staying on the trails.
