A lovely, easy hike. Perhaps a little too much road with passing traffic.
But still good.

However, be careful with the description starting at No. 3. Of course, you take the Chambaud road on the right after the stop sign. But then it says: "turn right and you will soon come to a crossroads." This is not very clear because you have already turned right after the stop sign. Let's say that immediately after the stop sign, you do turn right, but immediately afterwards you are at a three-way junction where the Chambaud road branches off to the right. Once you've done that, you drive another 600 or 800 metres before reaching a crossroads. It's at this crossroads that the directions tell you to go straight on, which is impossible. This is where you have to turn left, otherwise you'll end up back where you started. Chemin des Oboussiers is almost visible from this point.

A pleasant route for a Sunday stroll, but not for breathtaking scenery. The start of the route from the town centre is quite dangerous, as you have to walk 900 metres along the side of a busy road with a speed limit of 70 km/h. However, the rest of the walk alongside the fields is pleasant and the surrounding houses are very beautiful!
During hunting season, be careful of hunters (wear brightly coloured clothing) and their dogs (always keep your own dogs on a leash)!
Instructions are sometimes unclear but overall very informative.

A "hike" that can be done entirely by car!!!
The word "path" often refers to paved streets and roads.
The return route is even dangerous, with no hard shoulder for pedestrians.
A walk through fields with little of interest.

Thank you for this pleasant hike with a beautiful view of the foothills of the Vercors, especially with the bright winter sun.

Route interest : ★☆☆☆☆ Very disappointing

As we were passing through the region, we decided to take this walk.
Unfortunately, we were very disappointed. There was an icy wind and the sky was quite overcast.
So I don't know if it was because of the weather, but we didn't see anything beautiful.
No scenery, no pretty spots. In fact, we didn't take a single photo during the two-and-a-half-hour walk!
The first and last three kilometres are even unpleasant. Walking along a railway track is not interesting at all.
If you live in a building all year round, you might enjoy walking in "the countryside". But as we come from the countryside, we found it completely uninteresting. It's even prettier where we live!
Luckily we didn't travel 120 km especially for this walk, because I would have been really disappointed.

A pleasant walk along small roads and tracks through fields and orchards, except for the start and end between the departure point and point (1) and from point (10) to the finish on a district road...
Beautiful views, thanks to vivreastmarcel for their very well-marked walks in the commune.
