This snowshoe hike takes you through the magnificent Arras forest to the hamlet of Plampinet.

6 km round trip between Névache (hamlet of Roubion) and Plampinet The trail winds through the Arras forest and along the Clarée, offering a succession of enchanting but possibly cool landscapes. FROM NÉVACHE : Departure from the Nordic Chalet (Nordic area reception). Head east (towards Plampinet) along the pedestrian route that runs alongside the cross-country ski trail on the left. Cross the Roubion bridge, then the Pont des Armands (caution: shared bridges with skiers). The itinerary then enters the undergrowth, for several kilometers to the summer path which gradually emerges from the forest to offer a view of the hamlet of Plampinet. We advise you to take advantage of this opportunity to visit the hamlet and climb up to the church (interior only accessible on guided tours). Return by the same route. FROM PLAMPINET : Leave from the bridge at the entrance to the hamlet. Take the cross-country ski trail behind the cemetery to the little chapel. From here, leave the track and follow the signs to the west (rural road heading up towards Névache). After about 800m, the route crosses the cross-country ski trail and enters the forest below. Do not take the ski trail, but follow the snowshoe markings. MARKINGS : You'll come across a succession of purple and orange markers. In the undergrowth, this can be reinforced with yellow and black tape for better visibility. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The snowshoe itinerary crosses the cross-country ski trail several times, so watch out for skiers coming up fast. Respect the markings and take care not to walk on the ski runs (unless the markings indicate that you can), for reasons of safety and respect for the grooming work. In the event of an accident, call 112, giving details of the route you are on and, if possible, your location, so that the first-aid team can come to your aid. Snowshoe trekking requires a minimum of skill and equipment, even on routes marked by the piste service. Likewise, weather conditions can change rapidly in the mountains. Check with the piste service before setting off. If you're a beginner, it's advisable to ask a professional to accompany you. Marked routes in the Nordic area. You'll be guided by orange or violet markers, and in the event of an accident, the ski patrol will be there to rescue you. Due to the risk of avalanches, wearing complete safety equipment (avalanche transceiver, probe, and shovel) is strongly recommended.
