Loop from Col de Rousset to Refuge du Col de Vassieux
Loop starting from the Col du Rousset, setting off along the superb old mule track carved into the hillside, then skirting the plain of the Bergerie de Chironne to reach the Col de Vassieux refuge in the forest. Return via the path overlooking the Diois valley, via the But de l'Aiglette and the Rochers de Chironne.
A hike offering a variety of landscapes, overlooking the Diois valley, without being vertiginous. Some hikers have even spotted vultures here.
Part of the Via Vercors circular route from Fenat
This circular loop takes the Via Vercors from Fenat up the Gorges du Méaudret and, at the end, takes theGR® to return via the heights along the Meillarot summit and descend via Bonnetière and Charpichon.
A detour via the charming Cabane de Serge in the Combe de la Cochette is also suggested.
The Gorges du Méaudret section is fairly open, while the return section is mostly in the woods.
The Pas de la Corne and Pas du Curé circular loop
A shaded walk with a few views, starting from Les Jaux d’Engins. A direct ascent to the Pas de la Corne, then on via the Goulet des Moulins and beneath the cliff. The descent takes you through the Défilé du Coulou and the classic Pas du Curé, returning to Les Jaux d’Engins via the dam.
Circular via La Sure, La Buffe and return via Le Trou de la Guêpe
A pleasant, safe walk, 80 per cent in the shade, taking in numerous vantage points, particularly at La Sure (views over the Grenoble-Voiron valley) and at the summit of La Buffe (360° views), as well as at various points along the way.
Updated 27/05/2022:- Added a circular loop around La Sure.- Added the location of the ‘wasp’s hole’.
Circular Brurstolen, Ballstad, Vestvågøya, Lofoten
A slightly demanding circular walk starting from Ballstad. The first part is along the water's edge on a stony path that winds its way up and down between the rocks, then there is a climb of over 200 m at a 15° gradient to reach the plateau and finally a descent via a staircase of 384 slabs, built by Nepalese sherpas. But what views of the surrounding islands from the coastal path and especially from the summit plateau!
Circular around the lakes of Sørvågen, Moskenesøya, Lofoten
An easy and enjoyable hike along the shores of Lakes Sørvågvatnet, Stuvdalsvatnet and Tridalsvatnet from the village of Sørvågen. Beautiful views of the lakes, mountains reflected in their waters, and torrents without having to climb too much.
Uttakliev and Vestvågøya from Haukland
Circular starting from Haukland, going around the Mannen and Veggen peaks via the old Uttakliev road, then returning via the Lomtjønna Pass above the tunnel. Pleasant trail along the coast connecting one beach to another.
Circular around Lake Stor-Kongsvatnet, Kabelvåg, Austvågøya in Lofoten
A beautiful hike of about 10 km with little elevation gain but lots of nature around Lake Stor-Kongsvatnet in Kabelvåg in Lofoten. Most of the hike is on gravel and dirt paths, and the final third is on wooden walkways at grass level to protect the natural environment. It is possible and pleasant to swim in the lake.
A short walk around Les Geymonds
A short, easy and peaceful walk with little elevation gain, along various country and mountain paths, often lined with Lauzes, passing through the two or three hamlets surrounding the Geymonds industrial estate, without ever really seeing it! You’ll be treated to several panoramic views of the eastern range of the Northern Vercors.
Circular route around the three hamlets beneath the Balcons de Villard
A short walk with minimal elevation gain, taking in three small hamlets: Les Guillets, Les Bouchards and Les Pouteils beneath the Balcons de la Cote 2000 / Villard-de-Lans, via paths that alternate between shade and full sun.
