Please note that there is an aerial progression on narrow ridges. Description: From the mountain hut of Gialorgues (2280 m-beacon.73a), take the pathway to the south to reach the Gialorgues mountain pass (col de Gialorgues). From there (2519 m-beacon.279), following the markings, go Southeast until the mountain pass of Boulière (2629 m-beacon.280). From there, continue on the pathway eastward until a steep descent begins to the south. At this point, leave the yellow markings and head towards the inclining crossing to the East. In front of you, you will see the Pointe de l'Escaillon (2740 m), which you have to climb the best you can. Go down on the narrow ridge Northeast until the mountain pass of Escaillon (2601 m) and then climb the broad grassy rounded hilltop, by a tiny pathway with cairns. This will lead you to the Bolofré peak (2827m). The return to the mountain hut of Gialorgues takes place via the reverse route.
