Col de Chironne walks

The start is at the Col du Rousset, on the Chamaloc side. If you want to see the Col de Rousset from a different angle, take this hike, which follows a magnificent path carved into the mountainside, with a via ferrata above if you feel so inclined. This path was used by mule drivers to reach Vassieux via the Col de Chironne. You will also admire the magnificent Chironne rocks overlooking the Chamaloc valley.

From the Col de Rousset, a panoramic view of the vultures. From the But de l'Aiglette, close-up view of these beautiful creatures.

A superb hike offering breathtaking views of the Vercors plateau accompanied by the flight of vultures! Best done in good weather for unobstructed views.

Loop starting from the Col du Rousset, setting off along the superb old mule track carved into the hillside, then skirting the plain of the Bergerie de Chironne to reach the Col de Vassieux refuge in the forest. Return via the path overlooking the Diois valley, via the But de l'Aiglette and the Rochers de Chironne. A hike offering a variety of landscapes, overlooking the Diois valley, without being vertiginous. Some hikers have even spotted vultures here.
