THE FORT OF DORMILLOUSE
Fortress dating from 1862, offering a Dantesque panorama of the Ubaye and Serre-Ponçon lakes from Montclar.
This fortress dates back to 1862 and was an integral part of the defense of the Southern Alps against Italy, serving as a relay on an optical transmission line linking Grenoble to Toulon. In addition to its geographical location on a peak, Dormillouse, whose name evokes the marmot, at an altitude of 2,500 meters, is a superb site offering a Dantesque panorama of the Ubaye and Serre-Ponçon lakes. Every year in July, a "ran'dormillouse" hike is organized on the site, with a brass band playing in the fort.

Vous pouvez faciliter la montée en prenant le télésiège qui vous réduira le dénivelé de 450 mètres environ... il en restera un peu mais courage la randonnée est très accessible et les points de vue notamment sur le lac de serre-ponçon juste sublime !
