Lake Serre-Ponçon

Highlight • Lake

The Serre-Ponçon lake was created in 1959 by the construction of a dam on the Durance. It is a pleasant vacation spot in the summer. Several roads go almost around it.

One of its most beautiful panoramas is on the small road that connects the village of Prunières to the lake.

The Gorges du Guil

Highlight • Other

The Guil gorges are one of the natural gateways to the Queyras national park. The torrential river has carved exceptional gorges out of the rock. This canyon, on numerous occasions, has served as a scene for filming films. Nature is felt here in its raw state.
