Vallouise France Wild Nature

A hike over the artificial lake of Serre Ponçon to enjoy a panoramic view of Embrun, the turquoise waters of the lake, Savines Lake, Gap and hillsides, the Orres ski resort but also the Grand Morgon almost at hand. The summit hosts a massive stone chapel that seems to have been built to cope with the swiftest windstorms.

Emmanuel Saint Fuscien (Doctor in Contemporary History and Lecturer at EHESS) devotes an interesting book to Freinet, under the title "A teatcher at war". Célestin Freinet, whose theses, in a few words, consist in putting the student at the center of learning, lived in Vallouise a few years at the end of the Second World War. His wife Elise Lagier Bruno being from the beautiful high alpine valley. He previously lived in the south of France, campaigned in the communist movement of the Alpes Maritimes and participated in the two world wars of the 20 th century.

Scheduled obsolescence is generally related to household electrical or electronic products. This phenomenon, whether voluntary or not, also exists with regard to sports shoes.

We invite you to take a look at a 1732 million pixel (1.7 GB) megapixel HD panoramic picture representing the Vallouise valley and the Ecrins massif from the Oreac plateau above Puy Saint Vincent.

A nice hiking idea in the Vallouise valley is to leave the hamlet of Puy Aillaud (1580 meters above sea level), to reach the summit of Blanche (2953 meters above sea level) and its superb panorama towards the Pelvoux.

The Chapel Notre Dame du Haut on the hill of Bourlémont (commune of Ronchamp), in Burgundy Franche Comté, will offer you a moment of calm and relaxation; especially if you find the way to visit places outside school holiday periods or "big" religious celebrations.

Here is finally my (the?) First HD picture representing Corsica in all its length, especially the northern end of Cape Corsica. This photo, realized at the end of the night (at the dawn of a beautiful day in December) after a (small?) Night walk in the snow comes from an assemblage of 9 images...

A few days a year it is possible to see the Corsica from the Côte d'Azur (Nice, Eze, Monaco, Menton, Grasse, Gourdon, Vence, about 180 kilometers). This phenomenon, rare at dawn, is exceptional the day.

The wildlife care center allowed us to attend a unique moment, presented on the video below [video].

After the Corsica from de continent here is a picture of the continent from Corsica!

Lake Puy Aillaud (2534 meters) is accessible in about 2 to 4 hours, depending on your pace, from the hamlet (1600 m) of the same name. This lake rounded measuring about 60 meters in diameter.

The viewpoint of the three refuges (2350 meters) is located in the High Alps (Hautes Alpes, 05) in Pelvoux even if the start and most of the ride takes place in Vallouise. The lookout is located in the National Park Ecrins.

The botanical garden of the Lautaret (2058m) was created in the late 19 th century. It is located between Grenoble and Briancon at the Lautaret pass up the valleys of the Guisane (Hautes Alpes) and Romanche (Isère).

What a pleasure to eat berries. For example after exercise (light or supported). The mixture of sugar and acidity, high water content are the red fruits are real health benefits. Strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, currants, black currants are bursting with vitamins and antioxidants.

Vipers, source of fantasy and multiple belief. Risk, especially in the Alps, where it is not uncommon to come across, is it important? Where does this phobia that many seem achieved?
