In the heart of the Buëch countries, Arambre Mountain offers wonderful panoramic views on Serres village and Savournon plains.

Description

From the tourist office, cross the Buëch bridge and go up the street on the left and turn left once again.
At the signpost, dive into the passageway on your right and go under the railway. Climb up through the hairpin bends path under box trees and pine trees. Bend right upon the ravine and after you reach a short slope turn left towards the Trou de la Lune (905 meters). Go straight on a steady rise until a junction (signpost “Le Sacre”, 1190 meters).
Turn left and reach Arambre summit throughout screes zones. (1434 meters, 1h30 return trip)
Enjoy the sumptuous panoramic view and go back to the departure point following the same route. Go back to Serres.

It is not recommended to descend or ascend via the Claret stream (even though the trail is marked on the IGN map) because this route is no longer maintained or marked and passes through a long section of scree that can be tricky.
Despite its modest elevation, the approach to the rock face is nonetheless challenging.
On the way back from the hike, a visit to Serres is highly recommended. This village bears witness to a rich history with its vaulted passageways (soustets).

The Buëch River
A tributary of the Durance, the Buëch Riover is a peaceful river that irrigates many apple fields and other orchards along its course. Taking its source in Lus-la-Croix-Haute, the stream stretches for 85 kilometers and drops to an altitude of nearly 2,000 meters.
