Vallon de Combau - Tête Chevalière, Vercors
A hike in Drôme and Isère, but starting from the Vercors drômois side.
The Vallon de Combau and the Tête Chevalière at 1951m. A panoramic view over the Trièves valley.
During the months of May and June, the Vallon du Combau is must-visit destination, where you can enjoy the flora and fauna, particularly marmottes.
A relatively easy hike up to the Pas de l'Essaure pass, then a little more difficult.
The Rock of Cairo
The great cliff of Rocher du Caire rises above Rémuzat. Look up and you'll see griffon vultures flying over the valley.
Please note that a hiker has informed us that a municipal by-law (posted at the top) prohibits hiking in the opposite direction.
Serre Gros from Rochebaudin
The Poët mountain is the last foothill of the Pre-Alps above the Rhône plain, and Serre Gros is its highest point at 971 metres.
Caution: very steep climb in the rock chimney (do not attempt in wet weather).
La Bergerie des Pradaux
Beautiful hike on the slopes of Couspeau, above Saint-Nazaire-le-Désert. Unobstructed view of the Roanne basin, the Servelle, the Diois and Vercors mountains.
Pas de la Clé and Bec de l'Orient
This walk offers a multitude of additional routes to vary according to your mood!
This one is designed to satisfy the most curious: visit the Glacière, Pas de la Clé and Becs de l'Orient, with superb panoramic views over the entire Isère valley.
A flower-filled, refreshing walk with panoramic views.
But Saint-Genix - Col de Vassieux - But de l'Aiglette
The Cols de Vassieux offer breathtaking views of the Marignac en Diois valley, Die, the Col du Rousset, the Glandasse, the Grand Veymont and the entire chain up to the Pic Saint-Michel above Villard-de-Lans and the Chironne rocks. Breathtaking ravines, flowers and butterflies everywhere, a marvel and, as a bonus, the passage of griffon vultures reintroduced to the region!
The Vellan Cross
A peaceful hike with the panorama of the Croix du Vellan as our destination. View of the entire Diois valley and some of the peaks of the Vercors. A panoramic table invites you to learn about all these peaks.
Carrieres Romaines - L'Arbre taillé - Hollowed-out tree trunk serving as drinking trough
Starting from Col du Rousset, head towards the Queyrie valley, where you will find the ancient Roman quarries, the famous carved tree, and a breathtaking view of the Grand Veymont.
This is a fairly long hike, but the landscapes are magnificent, and you may even see marmots and their young, as well as griffon vultures soaring in the sky.
Menglon - La Grésière
This hike in the Glandasse massif takes you up to almost 1,500 metres with unobstructed views and a 360° panorama.
The originality of this hike lies in the fact that the trail takes you through a pedestrian tunnel carved into the mountainside, which is a little vertiginous.
Sainte-Victoire la Croix de Provence
Sainte-Victoire is a highlight of Provence for hikers and climbers.
Before you start, make sure access to the massif is allowed because a regulation is applicable from 1 June to 30 September which and can limit access hours.
Vesc "Le Peinard"
Hike around the Montagne du Ruy. View of the Jabron and Veyssanne valleys, as well as the Montagne de la Lance and part of the Montagne Angèle.
Thorrenc, castle, tunnel and viaducts
Charming village with a beautiful castle (private), a large viaduct from an old railway line that ran from Firminy to Saint-Rambert d'Albon.
Valdrôme resort: Montagne de l'Aup
From the resort, you will discover a vast 360° panorama of the Southern Alps and the whole of the Diois region, with a view of Mont Ventoux too.
Best done in June for the exceptional flora.
The Crêtes de Tarsimoure
If you enjoy a good climb with cables to help you and then discovering an exceptional 360° panorama over the whole of southern Diois, then you will love this hike.
Best done in June for the flowers; by mid-July, it's already too late.
The Col du Pouzenc
If you are in the Serre Ponçon area, this hike is well worth the climb. You will walk through a very quiet valley that is rarely visited, even in the height of summer, inhabited only by marmots and a few chamois, and hundreds of alpine flowers of all kinds in July!
There is an impressive view of Serre-Ponçon once you reach the pass.
Les Rochers de Chironne / Col de Rousset
The start is at the Col du Rousset, on the Chamaloc side.
If you want to see the Col de Rousset from a different angle, take this hike, which follows a magnificent path carved into the mountainside, with a via ferrata above if you feel so inclined. This path was used by mule drivers to reach Vassieux via the Col de Chironne.
You will also admire the magnificent Chironne rocks overlooking the Chamaloc valley.
