Boyon (ruisseau) walks

A beautiful loop in the hills above the Eyrieux Valley, where you can discover charming little hamlets and isolated houses in the purest Ardèche style.

A lovely, easy hike that will allow you to discover Pranles' three remarkable sites (in season): the Moulin de Mandy, the Romanesque church and the Protestant Museum. It can be done with children aged around ten, provided they are fit enough to cover the distance. There are also beautiful views of the knolls and volcanoes and, further away, the Alps (in good weather).

Please note: moderator's note on 20 April 2024. - From (4), access to the ridge (5) is blocked. - On the return journey from (2), take the same route in reverse to reach (1). The alternative route is blocked. Note dated 05/05/24 The route has been modified. Depart from the cemetery car park to continue the route. Return along the same route as on the way there, as the path is now blocked. I hope to return in the summer of 2024 to improve this old route. Thank you for your feedback, and please be friendly to anyone you meet on the trail. In the heart of the Ardèche countryside, a route taking in the Serre de Gruas, the small village of Chambon-de-Bavas and the ruins of the Saint-Quintin farm. Panoramic views of the Drôme valley, the Trois Becs and the Vercors, and on the other side, the Monts d'Ardèche park. The hike can be shortened to 14/15 kilometres.
