A relatively short loop that is nonetheless very varied. You'll enjoy some beautiful views of the mountains and, on the way back, an open panorama of the Durance and its valley.

From the car park, take the footbridge over the Durance. Follow the cycle path towards Baratier (short section under the N94) and head towards a roundabout.
Take the second exit towards La Mure (D240), drive 100 m then take another right fork. At the next crow's-foot intersection, take the Chemin du Grand Liou, which continues to the right.
Continue straight on, skirting fields, until you reach the village of Crots. Cross it heading west while admiring the château of Picomtal.

Just before you reach the N94, take a small tarmac road to the right and go through a tunnel to find yourself on the other side of the N94.
Now head towards the lake and then set off along the dyke, with Embrun as a backdrop. Rejoin the footbridge over the Durance to return to the starting point.
Very easy
