Description
Easy round trip hike for enjoying the panorama at the top.
Go down the pass for 250 m in the direction of "Buis les Baronnies / Montauban sur l'Ouvèze" by road.
At the 1st right turn, at the “Col de Perty” post (1285 m), turn left on the track. Go up switchbacks until you reach an electricity pylon.
Follow a small path that goes to the right through the boxwoods and rocks. Be careful when descending the ridge, the path is stony and slippery. Pay attention to the left intersection to get back to the ridge. Walk along the ridge to reach the summit of Chamouse.
The same route in the opposite direction brings you back to the starting pont.
