In English, they are called “hoodoos”, in French, they are poetically called “chimneys of fairies” or “demoiselles coiffées”.

These sedimentary rocks have stood the test of time thanks to the hard rock lying above. The result after centuries or even millennia of erosion: these enigmatic columns.

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.

Col de Pontis

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Col de Pontis is not well known, but it is definitely one of the most beautiful climbs in France. But be careful, because it's not easy at all. Especially from the south side (especially in the summer) the Col de Pontis is tough, but at its best. Each new hairpin bend provides new views of Lac de Serre-Ponçon. The climb is a total of 5.3 kilometers with an average of 9.6%.
