Description of the walk

Park in front of the Château de Sallmard.

(S/E) Head south-east towards Sallmard. After 300 m, at the intersection, follow the path on the left (Chemin de Sallmard) to the end.

(1) At the end of the path, in front of the stone house, take the path on the left that enters the forest, towards Les Colleres. When you reach the plateau, continue for about 200 m until you reach a junction of paths.

(2) Take the path slightly to the left, towards Sommet des Colleres (the most clearly marked path) and continue through the woods. After 1.5 km, turn right (the most clearly marked path) and join a road at a livestock building.

(3) Cross the road, walk a few metres to the left and take the path on the right. Continue straight ahead until you reach Chemin des Blaches after passing greenhouses on your left.

(4) Turn left and reach the crossroads a few metres after the entrance to the Blaches farm (nurseries).

(5) Continue straight ahead until you reach Château de Sallmard (S/E).

A very varied route with a varied path, we combined the two routes around Peyrins to create a day-long hike...

A very beautiful short hike, my only complaint is the lack of markings (practically erased or non-existent).
Suitable for families. I recommend it.

This is a family and dog-friendly walk... We wanted to go to the MOURS viewpoint, but there were no signs anywhere. Fortunately, given the number of walkers, we were able to get the information we couldn't find. It's a shame that there are so few signs.
Otherwise, this walk is very pleasant for people who have some difficulty walking.

A short, easy hike that is quite popular (you will encounter many people walking their dogs). The section through the woods is pleasant, while the straight stretch in full sun is less so when it is hot, but this is towards the end of the route.

A bit crowded, but still
Pleasant to do
A bit difficult for my partner, who has limited mobility
I would describe this hike as moderately easy
It's a bit uphill and it's over five kilometres long

A lovely little hike where we were sheltered from the wind and on paths that weren't too wet despite the rain in previous days. Lots of birdsong in April.

Saturday morning, joggers out and about + a few mountain bikers (but not annoying). Nice circular, fairly shaded, easy to follow, a few viewpoints. Peaceful, perfect for working up an appetite or aiding digestion without risking sunstroke.
