Chusclan walks

Starting from Chusclan, this is a hike over different types of terrain (tarmacked paths between vineyards, DFCI trails, single-track paths, etc.). Viewpoints over the Rhone Valley and Mont Ventoux. Visit to the medieval site of Gicon.

A pleasant short walk with a slight incline. The Saint-Pierre Chapel is still in good condition but closed. Beautiful views of the valley.

Route on the Plateau de Lacau and in the two valleys that surround it: the Combe d'Enfer, very wild and mysterious, and the Combe Roubaud, less steep but just as lush.

A family walk around the Oppidum of Caesar Camp in Laudun.

A very beautiful, mostly flat trail through holm oak trees, alternating between shaded passages and panoramic views of the surrounding plains and hills. A visit to Caesar's Camp will add a touch of history to the end of the trail.

Who hasn't admired the fortress of Mornas while driving along the A7 motorway? Now is your chance to climb up a very accessible path and admire the landscape of the Rhône Valley from a cliff over 100 metres high, then continue on a circular route between heath and pine forests. This is a variation on a route offered on site, which avoids returning via a fairly busy tarmac road between buildings and houses.

The first part of the hike is through the woods, followed by a ridge trail offering superb views of the Rhône valley. At the end of the trail, you will arrive above the fortress.

Discover the ruins of the Château Saint-Agathe in Sabran and the beautifully restored Château de Boussargues.

Before reaching the plateau overlooking the Rhône valley, offering superb views to the south and north, this route takes you through old sand quarry galleries and part of a surprising drystone shelter trail. At the western end of the plateau stands the fortress of Mornas, which you can see from above but which can be reached by taking a short detour.The only difficulty of this route is its length, as it mainly follows wide forest tracks lined with majestic pine trees.

A walk without too many difficulties and numerous headlands along the route.

Loop around the village of Saint-Gervais in the Gard. A short, easy and varied walk, fragrant in spring with thyme, heather and rosemary lining the paths. The route passes through vineyards, olive groves and national forest.

Sometimes in the woods, sometimes in the vineyards, this walk takes you through the countryside of the Rhone Valley and Mont Ventoux.

Short hike in the grounds of Château de Montfaucon.

About ten kilometres north of Orange, in the Haut Vaucluse, the hills of Uchaux conceal a little-known heritage: a chapel and 13th-century "castellas" surrounded by forests and vineyards offering quality wines await you.

A route in the Gard Rhodanien region for the whole family, on paths accessible to all. Alternatively, it is possible to take a shortcut via the path directly connecting points (3) and (7), reducing the length of the route to 10 km.
