Larnas walks

Discover a wild and peaceful valley that contrasts with the festive atmosphere of the huge leisure area of the adjacent campsite. Descend via a small, damp path along the stream, then climb back up a very stony but well-shaded path. Not recommended for young children due to the rocky terrain.

A splendid medieval village, a hermit and his cave, a valley in the limestone hills and the views of the Rhône Valley and Mont Ventoux. Prepare yourself for a nice, family-friendly hike, which will suit everyone.

The high point of Basse-Ardèche, this promontory (719 m) offers a beautiful panorama of the Cévennes, Mont Lozère, the Alps, the Baronnies, Mont Ventoux and the Ridge of Montmirail.

Discover the beautiful village of Rimouren and its picturesque stream, La Conche. You will first walk along the wide and enchanting La Conche stream, dotted with beautiful ponds. A mule track takes you along the bottom of a small cliff to the Bois du Laoul plateau. The hike continues along a forest track, then small paths to form a circular loop and return to the village via the path along the stream. The village then appears before you, above the twisting Conche.An easy hike, accessible to all.

Here, there are no spectacular 360° panoramic views, but you can enjoy a very pleasant walk in the Bois de Laoul forest on wide, easy tracks and pretty, shady, winding paths. There are a succession of ravines, a magnificent and wild balcony path over the Gorges du Rimouren with its superb cliffs, a mule track, and some beautiful views of the Rhône valley from Serre-Court. This is more of a winter walk.

A long and beautiful hike through vineyards, then along the ridges of the Berg forest, offering stunning panoramic views of the Dent de Rez, the Dentelles de Montmirail, Mont Ventoux, the Baronnies, the Vercors, the Montagne Ardéchoise, and more. There are also beautiful views of the villages of Alba, Saint-Andéol de Berg, Saint-Thomé, and the Rhône Valley. To the north is the Coiron plateau with the Tour de Mirabel and Neck de Sceautres.

Behind the Dent de Rez, in Ardèche, lies a maze of valleys and hills stretching to the Ibie valley. Now practically deserted, the area was inhabited and cultivated until the early 20th century. I invite you to discover the ruined farms of Chambonnet, the ruined hamlet of Pallières and its spring, and above all the hundreds of terraces built on the hillside to make the land cultivable.

This path, much less travelled than the classic route, allows you to bypass the massif to the north with magnificent views of the Ardèche mountains and the immense wild forest, which is aptly named because it is very, very wild... It is also the most accessible route for vehicles to reach the summit, but it is of course prohibited to vehicles and reserved for site management personnel; barriers prevent vehicles from crossing.

This medium-difficulty hike in the Ardèche mountains will take you to the Col de Reboul with a nice climb, some lovely shaded sections and a descent towards Reboul. You will cross several fords, meet some interesting people and enjoy some beautiful views.

Viviers, capital of the Vivarais region in Ardèche, located on the banks of the Rhône, has a beautiful architectural heritage. I suggest a walk to discover the historic centre and the port.

The hike takes place on tracks and single tracks in the undergrowth and sometimes on beautiful paved paths, sheltered from the wind as it is exposed on the southern slope of Bois Redon. The route is mostly shaded and passes through mainly oak forests.

Lavender and vine crops. Heaths and dry stone walls. Ruins of a former German military camp. An extremely easy walk, with no elevation gain, on good paths and small roads with no traffic.

A beautiful hike typical of southern Ardèche, alternating between stony paths, sharp limestone pavement, rocks, trails, tracks and small roads, starting from the charming little village of Saint-Remèze, which was once fortified. The "castle", the Romanesque church, a few fountains and a wash house are some of the highlights of the visit. Beautiful views of the Rocher de Sampzon, Mont Lozère, the Baronnies, Ventoux and Vercors.

A beautiful hike on the ridges of the Monts de Berg, offering some lovely views. A visit to the well-restored village is a must: cobbled streets with arcades connecting the façades, shops at the bottom of old houses, an old oven. In terms of nature, the town is built at the foot of a typical Mediterranean forest, which offers an astonishing spectacle as you walk through its plots, separated by clapas, lavender, almond trees, mulberry trees and olive trees.

This hike starts at the church and takes you past the foot of Petit Montagu before turning towards Les Condamines. Then there is a short stretch on the D558. The hike passes through Pié Gautier and Courmarède before descending to Saint-Maurice-d'Ibie.

From the car park behind the post office in Le Teil, we set off towards the Greenway in the direction of Aubenas, covering part of the route through bridges and tunnels before returning by the same route.

Greenway inaugurated in December 2025, for the section from Le Teil to Saint-Pons. Bring lighting (headlamp or other) to cross four tunnels, one of which is 900 m long. This Greenway is to be extended soon. The hike is classified as difficult because of its length.

The greenway was inaugurated in December 2025, for the section from Le Teil to the old Alba-la-Romaine railway station, at least supposedly. Bring a light ( headlamp or other) to go through three tunnels, one of which is 900 m long.

From the plateau to the river, this short and fairly easy route will also allow you to discover the vegetation of the gorges, notably the Phoenician juniper. The elevation gain is at the end of the route, and the concrete track from the Gournier bivouac to the starting point is very steep. The route is well shaded. Pay attention to point (3).
