Rochefort-en-Valdaine Castle
Starting from Espeluche, this circuit takes you along pretty paths in the Bois de Fonbrenoux to the partly ruined castle of Rochefort-en-Valdaine, which still has its 13th-century Saint-Blaise chapel, listed as a historic monument. It then continues along the ridges, offering beautiful views of the valley.
Ruins of the old village of Allan and Siméon's Cross
This hike to the ruins of Old Allan offers panoramic views of the Rhône Valley between Donzère and Cruas. The first part of the trail alternates between wide, open woodland paths and, halfway along, you will discover the Croix Siméon. The trail then becomes narrower and more winding, remaining shaded and sheltered.
The Cîtelles Stream
This is an easy hike that alternates between cool woodland and wide open trails on the plateau. You will pass through the hamlet of CÎtelles with its small chapel and waterfall, which is only accessible from above. The return journey follows the stream, where you can take a dip in places.
The route crosses the river four times via small bridges or large stones.
This is a very pleasant walk in summer, and the breaks by the water are very welcome.
The ridges of Rochefort-en-Valdaine
This lovely loop along the ridges of L'Izard and Mont Laroche offers magnificent views of the Roubion valley as far as the foothills of the Vercors and the 3 Becs.
Starting from the pretty village of La Touche, the route passes the castles of Rochefort-en-Valdaine, then the truffle fields of Janeston.
The hike also crosses the pretty little hamlet of Moulin de Bay on the riverbank, via a succession of varied paths and trails, which are sometimes steep but only for short distances.
Serre de Mirabel from Citelles
A lovely walk starting from the hamlet of Citelles, where the waterfall flows, and ending at the Serre de Mirabel. There are several viewpoints overlooking the Jabron valley as far as the foothills of the Vercors and the Mont Ventoux. The route is very varied, taking you through woodland, along tracks and paths, amidst forests of beech, oak and pine trees, and through fields of lavender.
Crête de la Montagne de l'Aup via La Sarcéna
Discover more than five kilometres of ridge offering breathtaking 360° views of the surrounding mountains. The route follows almost exclusively single-track trails winding through woods and meadows. From late May to late June, the trail is adorned with abundant, particularly pleasant and colourful flora.
