Circular route in the Barry Massif starting from Bollène
This circular route takes us on a journey through time, via the Château de Chabrières and the troglodytic hamlet of the same name, of which a few traces remain, the unique Grotte de l'Ermite cave, and the village of Barry, part of which has already been beautifully restored.
This route keeps us sheltered from the Mistral wind most of the time and often takes us through woodland, offering magnificent panoramic views of the Rhône valley, Mont Ventoux, the Dentelles de Montmirail and the Baronnies.
However, be sure to wear sturdy footwear as the terrain is often rocky. There is also a short, somewhat exposed section under the Château de Chabrières.
As the Barry massif is criss-crossed by numerous paths, we recommend using the app's GPS.
The Navon by the ruins of Belle Eau
A circular route, often through woodland, along paths and small roads, between the villages of Malataverne and Donzère. Walkers will discover the remains of the ponds that adorned the Domaine de Belle Eau in the 19th century. A short climb takes you to the summit of the Navon, where you can admire a superb panorama of the Rhône valley.
