Sightseeing
Cascade de la Lance is just a 20 minute walk from the centre of Colmars - we have seen Dippers there in the summer.
Excellent bakers on the main street Le P'tit Rustique - the moelleux is a must! Also a thriving market on Tuesday and Friday (Friday is the larger market).

The path along the ridge is part of GR56 - not for the faint hearted!
The Refuge Restaurant just over the Col does an excellent charcuterie platter - you can sit by the log fire inside on cooler days or on the sunny terrace in summer.

Situated on a sunny plateau on the main slopes, this friendly family run restaurant is a must for lunch. Make sure you get there early to order one of their delicious pizzas cooked in a wood-fired oven.
