Drôme walks
The Serre des Aigles in Aouste-sur-Sye
A lovely autumn hike offering numerous views of the Vercors, the peaks of the Saoû forest and the Baronnies. The route crosses rural farmland, where vineyards and fields give way to forest. There is a bit of road at the start.
The Crêtes de Crest
A pleasant walk in the hills above Crest offering beautiful views of the southern Vercors, the peaks of the Saoû Forest, the Ardèche mountains and the Drôme valley. As a bonus, you can explore Crest and its heritage at the start and end of the walk.
The Crête de Ramiat
The Crête de Ramiat is the flagship hike from Sainte-Croix, and rightly so! Admittedly, there is a bit of road at the start, but then there are wide paths or well-marked trails and, above all, splendid panoramic views of the Drôme Valley and the Vercors. The passage along the ridge can be tricky in short sections for those prone to vertigo and requires sure-footedness in places. However, it is possible to avoid this section without missing out on the beauty of the landscape.
Cul de Drôme
A flat hike along the Drôme to its mouth at the Rhône. Discover unspoilt nature with its fields, hedges and pretty paths along the dykes. You will see the fish pass, the Viarhona cycle route, swans, great cormorants and more.
Avoid in winter when there are strong north winds.
Another Tour de Chabrier from Saillans
Variation on the classic Tour de Chabrier hike via the Col des Vallons and the Pas de la Bernarde, with a return via a tiny path overlooking the Drôme and the D93 between Saillans and Vercheny. Splendid views guaranteed over the Drôme Valley, the Massif des Trois-Becs and the Vercors.
Balcony of the Sources of the Drôme
Starting from the hamlet of La Bâtie-des-Fonds and the sources of the Drôme via cross-country paths, you reach an enchanting ridge. The route winds between Drôme and Hautes-Alpes, offering a 360° panorama with views of Le Duffre, Le Dévoluy and, in the distance, Le Vercors, Les Écrins and the Lure mountain.
From the Via Rhôna to the gates of the Monts d'Ardèche Regional Nature Park.
This route will take you along the entire length of the Payre cycle path, which starts in Pouzin and ends in Privas, the gateway to the Monts d'Ardèche Natural Park. The route starts from the car park in the small village of Les Petits Robins, near the Rhône. You will cycle part of the way along the Via Rhôna to Le Pouzin, which you will cross, before rejoining the La Peyre cycle path on the outskirts of the village.
