Jaillans walks

A very beautiful family hike with stunning views of the Monts du Matin and Montagne Mussan.

An easy walk to discover the heritage and countryside around these two villages. You will walk along the edge of the Royans hills with beautiful views of the plain to the east. At the beginning and end, this walk partly overlaps with the marked hike: "L'Hostunoise".

An unusual hike starting from the village of Meymans, along the ridge at the start with a return via the Ravin des Combes.Important: the passage through the ravine is quite technical and unmarked. Follow the path that seems obvious on either side of the small stream, which can be a little difficult to cross after heavy rain.

Between small country roads and forest paths, this short route allows you to discover the surroundings of Meymans.

A very beautiful hike in the Monts du Matin. No particular difficulty except for the steep climb in the first part of the circuit. Dogs are strictly prohibited in this area.

A very pleasant short hike. Much of the hike is in the shade. The view of the Vercors is magnificent when you reach Pas du Loup.

Large circular route covering the main ridges delimiting the upper basin of the Portail de Beauregard: ascent via the wild Vachères (off-trail), passage through the Cols de Sonnaize, Pas du Loup and Tourniers, steep climb to Pas de la Pierre to cross the long and beautiful ridge of Montagne de Musan to Pas Pourceau, descent via the "Pré de Cinq-Sous", the Cols des Cordeliers and Marchands, finally the Ravin de Combins to the Passage du Tour and return to the village via the Portail.

A "wild" route at the start, two caves to visit and a magnificent panorama to admire from the Montagne de Mussan, covering a large part of the Vercors, make this hike well worth the effort.

A variation on the classic hike via the Col des Marchand (which it avoids), less demanding in terms of difficulty and duration than the usual routes, this loop takes you along good paths and trails to the Pré de Cinq Sous, returning via the Ravin des Goulets and the luminous Ravin de Tête d'Homme.

Almost entirely through undergrowth and forest, this pretty, fairly challenging hike offers beautiful views of the Vercors and the Romans valley on a clear day. The ridge route, passing by the Rocher de Chantemerle where the Beauregard TV transmitter is located, is a succession of ascents and descents, sometimes close to or far from the cliffs, sometimes over rocks or sharp limestone pavement.

This is a short walk in the Vercors to a little-known waterfall, which unfortunately dries up in summer and autumn. To get there, you will follow wide paths through a rugged or open landscape, surrounded by small mountains, green meadows and fragrant undergrowth. This is not a circular walk, but a round trip. The outward journey is a constant and sometimes steep climb. Logically, the return journey is much easier.

This is an easy hike. It will take you between the Isère and the Bourne Canal, passing by the Sainte-Béatrix Chapel and its promontory overlooking the Isère with a remarkable view of the Vercors.

This hike is a variation of Château Gaillard to Saint-Mamans. It is a little more challenging, a little longer and has fewer tarmac roads. But it still offers beautiful views of the Musans mountains and the Valence plain.

The cobbled climb, an ancient medieval road, leads to Bel Aire. Along the way, you can admire the paving, the structures from the period and the ruts carved out by the carts and wagons that used to travel to the castle mound known as "Le Pain Sucre", which dominates the Saint-Lattier valley.

The stronghold of the bishops of Valence, whose rights to this castle were confirmed in 1238 by the German emperors, Pellafol has always had the same lords as Barbières, although it had a different suzerain. This 8.5 km circuit takes you around the castle in Barbières, via the Col de la Sambie.

While the Pas de Saint-Vincent and Pierre-Chauve are classics in the area, the route described here is less so... You'll need strong legs to climb the 300 m ascent below the Pas, save some energy to reach the summit of Pierre-Chauve, and a good sense of direction to reach Tourniol... but what a treat for the eyes!

Easy walk to get to know the towns of Bourg-de-Péage and Romans-sur-Isère better by taking the green paths (Bois des Naix and banks of the Isère in Bourg-de-Péage and the Coulée Verte and Parc François Mitterrand in Romans-sur-Isère).

This is an easy hike that will allow you to discover the surrounding landscape between the two villages. At times, you will have a panoramic view of the plains and foothills of the Vercors.
