This easy little loop allows you to discover the charming hamlet of Paulhiet. The route, with gentle slopes (both uphill and downhill), mainly follows wide paths and a few small, quiet roads. The route is mostly shaded, winding its way through woodland and hills. It is best to do this walk when the lavender is in bloom, as there are many lavender fields around Paulhiet.

Montagne de la Lance holds a special place in Drôme Provençale. Easily recognisable with its long curved shape, it dominates the plain at 1,300 metres and is therefore visible from quite a distance.A vast panorama opens up as you reach the summit following the ridge.
Due to the presence of herd protection dogs (patous), hiking is prohibited during the summer grazing period, from 20 May to 31 October.
