Very difficult
  • A beautiful path to reach the ridge of Roc de l'Aigle which offers a view from above of the Buëch region and the Jabron...

  • From Ribier's fountain, take the road toward sisteron and turn left (post 388). After the cemetary and the bridge, take the right road toward "Les Charles". You will reach the hamlet after ignoring the two roats on the left. You can do this part by car.
    At Les Charles, the road becomes a steeper path. 600 m later (post 389), turn left at the fork and follow the main trail.
    Take a right turn next and follow the trail on the left in a thick underwood, toward the Pierre Impie path.
    Go right...

    Take a right turn next and follow the trail on the left in a thick underwood, toward the Pierre Impie path.
    Go right and go up to the fence, you'll see the Buëch valley and orchards from a mountain trail.
    The path becomes a trail going up quickly and around the Pierre Impie rock. You can also see some climbers from this point. The trail can be steep and sometimes slippery.
    At the ridge, be careful, as the path gets pretty rocky. At the end of the ridge a small path will need you to use your hands to get up, if you're curious, a small stele is on the right there.
    At the end of the ridge, a trail in the shade goes down to the mountain side, follow the path going up, which is sometimes a bit steep.
    As you exit the woods, walk along the fence, and proceed forward on the downwards slope.
    When you reach a part without a path, go right where you'll see some ruins on a flat area, proceed on this path to reach the post 389 and retrace your steps before getting to the end.
