A long circular walk starting from the picturesque Mediterranean village of Châtillon-en-Diois. Fabulous scenery over the Glandasse and the Vercors High Plateaus, with a bit of a challenge when it comes to navigation. It is possible to spread the walk over two days by stopping for the night near the magnificent Pas de l’Aiguille.

Departure from Châtillon-en-Diois (Drôme)
This lovely walk allows visitors staying in Châtillon-en-Diois to reach Die on foot, passing through vineyards and walnut groves situated in the foothills of the Glandasse, the southern outcrop of the Vercors overlooking the Drôme valley and the Baronnies.
The route allows time to appreciate the uniformity of this geographical landscape, which characterises the upper Drôme and its tributary, the Bez.
A walk around the hills between the Bez and the Boidans stream, via Les Payats

Departure from Menglon (Drôme)
One of the few ‘countryside’ walks near Chatillon-en-Diois. This family-friendly route winds around the hills of Mont Martel and Les Bourdeaux, between the Bez stream and Les Payats. The route follows the Chemin de Saint-Martin, then descends along the right bank of the Ruisseau des Boidans, before heading towards Chatillon-en-Diois, going up the Bez valley. The circular route follows dirt tracks through vineyards, meadows, farmland, copses, orchards and walnut groves, offering beautiful views over the Diois valley, the nearby hills and the whole of the Glandasse.

Departure from Treschenu-Creyers (Drôme)
Another very difficult and long stage, starting in a landscape of mountain pastures and ending in a vast, dark forest. The view of the Dévoluy peaks (Obiou, Grand Ferrand) from the Jocou (2,051 m, the highest point of these five days) makes up for the gruelling climb leading up to it.
