The beauty of the lakes and the diversity of landscapes encountered make this hike, at the crossroads of the Ubaye and La Blanche valleys, an essential itinerary in the Alpes de Haute-Provence. The Col Bas lakes are classified as a Sensitive Natural Area, a fragile site rich in biodiversity. Do not stray from the marked trail (biotope protection order no. 86-3106). This is a rare phenomenon in Haute-Provence: lakes have been invaded by plants that have accumulated and partially filled them, creating a unique wetland environment. This prevents the complete decomposition of organic matter, giving the lake its blackish color and allowing peat to form in layers at a rate of 3 to 4 cm per century. Each layer preserves the remains of living things that have disappeared over the centuries and allows us to reconstruct the environments of different eras. From Seyne-les-Alpes (9 km), take the D207 towards Montclar, then the D607 to Saint-Pons, where you follow the Col-Bas forest trail (open from May to October) to its end (with a designated parking lot). Alternative: Access via chairlifts, Montclar Station. The Brèche chairlift requires an intermediate stop; you can return via the Lacs stop.

Pub, bar, brasserie in the center of Digne les Bains. "L’Étoile is a beautiful brasserie with terraces that stretch out at the beginning of Boulevard Gassendi, facing the Étoile roundabout and its parking lots. For nearly fifteen years, it has been a popular spot for those who enjoy basking in the sun or sitting in the heated area for the more chilly ones. The menu offers a wide variety of options to suit all tastes: delicious composed salads, charcuterie boards, well thought out daily specials and generous portions of meat. When it comes to dessert, the café gourmand is easily devoured. One of the chef’s specialties is the homemade hamburger with artisanal bread. The presentation of the dishes is pleasing, and the service is quick, making it a great choice for those in a hurry. In the evenings, this brasserie-bistro transforms into a tapas bar, offering a tapas menu with a wide selection of wines, cocktails and beers. Hervé, the owner, is a fan of music and rugby, thus it is not uncommon to come across a live concert by a local band or a live broadcast of a sporting event. In summary, L’Étoile offers excellent value for money and is a pleasant stop in Digne-les-Bains on the Alpine road. To top it all, a large car park is located right in front and the Tourist Office is only a few metres away. Lunch service: 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm Dinner service: 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm"

In summer, chamois can be seen grazing in the cool of the day. When the sun heats up the valley, they prefer to lie in the shade of the green alders, unless they stay on the snowfields in the cooler areas. Very curved horns: this is a male, a billy goat. Open horns: a female goat. The horns do not extend beyond the ears: this is an Eterlou or Eterle, young in its second year. Horns barely pointing: it's a kid..

Around the refuge of Les Bans, the marmot observes visitors as much as they observe it! Its main strategy in the face of predators (golden eagle, fox, etc.) is to seek refuge in its burrow. It lives in a family, made up of a pair of dominant adults and subordinates from successive litters. Grooming, games and fights ensure group cohesion and respect for hierarchy. Everyone helps to mark out the territory by depositing faeces or urine at the borders and rubbing their cheeks against the rocks to leave their scent. The marmot is a wild, herbivorous animal. Feeding it causes it to adopt behaviours that run counter to the instinctive reactions that usually protect it.

Lake Sainte Marguerite lake lies in the high Eysalette valley, surrounded by peaks that almost form an amphitheatre, with the Pic Silhourais and the Alpe de Verdun mountain rising above them. This exceptional setting is complemented by the rich fauna of the lake, which promises a great catch for anglers, particularly the Brown trout, which can also be found in the Eysalettes torrent, which rises in the lake.

The Alpine Pasqueflower is common in the department. This anemone is found in lawns and undergrowth. Its fruits are achenes, meaning that they do not open. It is a dry fruit that is not intended to be eaten by animals. This means they colonise environments on the wind, which carries them from one place to another.

These springs emerge between two layers of limestone rock, after which the water is then partially channelled to supply the ski resort of Les Orres . While the name of these springs may seem out of place in the heart of this mountain range, it comes from the Order of St John of Jerusalem, which held land in the valley and in particular the Muretier valley located just above the springs..

In summer, chamois can be seen grazing in the cool of the day. When the sun heats up the valley, they prefer to lie in the shade of the green alders, unless they stay on the snow. Their highly developed sense of hearing and smell make them difficult to approach. You'll need binoculars to spot them! Very curved horns: this is a male, a billy goat. Open horns: a female goat. The horns do not extend beyond the ears: this is an Eterlou or Eterle, young in its second year. Horns barely pointing: it's a kid..

This centuries-old sheepfold was first restored in 1755 during Jean Francois Gautier's term as mayor of Les Orres, after whom it was named, and once again in 2009 after withstanding more than two centuries of weathering. The floor of the sheepfold was laid using the traditional "standing timber" technique. Small, debarked trunks 12 cm high are held vertically by crushed gravel between the trunks.

The chapel was built in 1873 by the parish priest, Father Doutre, in veneration of Our Lady of Laus. It was the first chapel of ease, a remote chapel built for isolated parishioners. It is hexagonal in shape, as is the original. For a number of years, a pilgrimage festival was held here. At the beginning of the century, the building was in a delapidated state and was even vandalised in 1972, when the first lake disappeared to make way for a replacement. It was not until 1993 that a benevolent local craftsman renovated it completely.

This small mammal has a furry belly and a white throat. Its ears are pointed with long hairs at the tips. It can be reddish, but there are also grey or even black examples. It is an excellent climber, capable of leaping from tree to tree. It builds its nest high up in the trees, at the fork of a branch and sometimes in a cavity. Its food mainly consists of seeds. Uniquely, it stores them burying them one or two centimetres deep.

The lake lies at 1,625 metres above sea level. It was created in 1979 by the Office National des Forêts, the French national forestry agency. This lake replaced a former lake which used to exist further uphill and which was lost 7 years ago with the installation of the water source catchment which supplies drinking water for the municipality of Les Crots. The lake lies in pleasant surroundings, where anglers and hikers pass one another with a friendly greeting.
