Brié-et-Angonnes walks

I recommend this hike as the perfect option for the winter months when snow prevents us from heading to higher altitudes.

This short hike (walk) is not far from the city but in the heart of the countryside, allowing you to discover a rural aspect of the Grenoble metropolitan area as well as some beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. This hike is accessible by public transport on line 65 of the TAG network. Get off at the "Brié église" stop.

A circular walk that passes through the Herbeys ridges and offers a splendid view of the start of the Belledonne range and Uriage Castle. You then pass through the Bois du Fournet above the Uriage valley and catch sight of the Dent de Crolles and Chamechaude. Return via the Montagne du Mulet and rejoin the Herbeys ridges.

A pleasant short hike, just a stone's throw from Grenoble, offering beautiful views of the various mountain ranges surrounding the Grenoble region.

This is a lovely walk, offering a number of views of the Vercors, some of the Matheysin mountains, the Chartreuse in autumn and Belledonne. The village of Villeneuve is also very charming. The climb is manageable, though the descent is quite steep.

This gentle walk not only takes you along the Haute-Jarrie Nature Reserve and its reed beds, but also allows you to admire beautiful landscapes of the Vercors and Belledonne mountain ranges and stroll through the Haute-Jarrie forest with its chestnut and birch trees. The walk can be lengthened or shortened.

This hike can be enjoyed in any season to discover the Vizillois landscape, the Romanche valley and the surrounding mountains. Very easy with a reasonable elevation gain, it is accessible to most people.

Route via the hamlets of Monjean, Chachatier and Vaulnaveys. Pleasant scenery and the chance to discover old mountain hamlets. Much of the route has the advantage of being through woodland and in the shade on the western slope, allowing you to set off without being tied to a specific time. The downside of the walk is a bit (too much) of a tarmac surface. Not recommended for those with allergies.

This hike is not difficult, although the climb is sustained, and will allow you to discover a unique view of the village of Vizille, the castle grounds and the surrounding area. An information board will tell you about the history of Vizille and its geography.

This hike allows you to discover mountain hamlets that were once abandoned and are gradually coming back to life.

On the outskirts of the capital of the Alps, a circular route starting from Eybens provides access to the Fort de Montavie overlooking Grenoble. This is more of a walk than a hike, offering remarkable views of the three mountain ranges surrounding the Drac and Isère valleys: Belledonne, Chartreuse and Vercors.

A lovely walk in peaceful surroundings, ideal for families. Tracks, paths, trails and tarmac combine in the shade of the woodland for most of the route, where you won’t find the crowds.

This walk takes place in the far north of the Conest massif. Although mainly through woodland, it offers a beautiful view over the Vizille plain and the surrounding mountains.

There are countless route options in this forested area on the outskirts of the Grenoble conurbation, delighting both walkers and mountain bikers alike. The advantage of this route, linking the village of Saint-Martin-d’Uriage to Eybens, is that it offers varied views, first of the Belledonne massif and then of the “capital of the Alps”, dominated by the Vercors and the Chartreuse.

This short hike allows you to discover the local heritage: the site of the old gypsum quarries, the hamlet of Saint-Sauveur and the ruins of Saint-Michel monastery. It also offers a breathtaking view of the Drac valley, the Vercors and the Grenoble conurbation.
