Bourne (rivière) walks

This moderately hilly route will allow you to discover the typical landscape of the Royans. Through meadows and walnut groves, this loop will also allow you to appreciate the charms of the villages of Saint-André-en-Royans and Pont-en-Royans (medieval streets, hanging houses, banks of the Bourne) after crossing a neighbourhood called "Le Paradis".

Very nice hike without any difficulty, with stunning views of the Pas des Voutes, Pas de la Charmate and Pas de l'Allier.

Walk around Mont Baret with access to two waterfalls. At the start of the hike, enjoy the view of the hanging houses of Pont-en-Royans. Passing through the Petits Goulets, a series of four tunnels on a narrow and very busy road, it is advisable to bring torches so that you are visible to motorists.

A walk in the hills above Saint-Nazaire-en-Royans offering beautiful views of the whole Royans region. Much of the route is through forest with some fairly steep slopes.

Starting from Basse-Valette, the Pas des Rages provides access to the top of the cliffs of the Bourne Gorges. The path then runs along the cliff, offering magnificent views of the gorges and allowing you to discover the Balme Noire cave. In addition to the walk, access to the starting point is via the Bourne Gorges road, one of the most beautiful in the Vercors.

The Trois Châteaux viewpoint offers a bird's eye view of Pont-en-Royans. From the Serre-Cocu orientation table, there is a beautiful panorama of the eastern ridges of the Vercors, from Grande Moucherolle to Grand Veymont. This hike takes place partly in the forest and follows roads to avoid private property.

This loop trail mainly runs through woodland from Saint-Martin-en-Vercors. The route leads to the cliffs overlooking the Bourne valley above Choranche, then to the Allier river with views of the Isère valley.

This hike is accessible to all and offers a 360° view of the Vercors and Pont en Royans. Ideal before dinner to whet your appetite!
