Orpierre walks
Le Suillet at the start of the village of Orpierre
This beautiful hike offers lovely views of the Céans and Blaisance valleys and the legendary cliffs of Orpierre, which make this village an exceptional climbing site.
Orpierre - Trescléoux
A short but very pretty stage, especially the second part. The exit from Orpierre, via the heights, is fantastic, thanks to the bird's eye view of the narrow village nestled in the cliffs. After Le Suillet, a beautiful ridge and a memorable passage through the black marl, the GR® passes by the Mont Garde lodge.
Rocher Saint Michel in Orpierre
A beautiful, fairly shaded walk with plenty of lovely views. The 360° panorama at the summit is remarkable. Everything is very well marked and signposted. Some sections are very steep, especially on the descent.
The balconies of Sainte-Colombe
This 6-kilometre walk from the village of Sainte-Colombe (with a single exposed climb of about 1.8 km) offers aerial views of Sainte-Colombe and the surrounding landscapes (Céans valley, Adrech rocks and Dévoluy) along the Chabre ridge via a flat, shaded hillside path.
A variation halfway through is possible to reduce the route to around 4 kilometres.
Balcon de Sainte-Colombe via the Col de Saint-Ange
From the village of Sainte-Colombe, nestled against its rock, set off on a varied route to discover magnificent 360° panoramic views.
Chabre Mountain
This is a lovely walk to discover the Montagne de Chabre, which offers beautiful scenery, especially along the ridge. You can see many hang-gliders heading towards Les Espranons.
Trescléoux - Serres
A grand finale for this revisited Tour des Baronnies. Along the ridges of Aumage and Eyglière, the peaks of Dévoluy and Écrins have never seemed so close. The Buëch Valley stretches out below us, and the 360° views allow us to retrace the path we have travelled over the last seven days: Serre de la Bouisse, Chamouse, Chabre and other peaks emerge on the horizon, bringing back fond memories.
Gorge de la Méouge - Crête Saint-Cyr
Tour des Gorges de la Méouge au départ de Saint-Pierre-Avez en traversant l'intégralité de la crête de la Montage de Saint-Cyr, afin de réaliser un itinéraire un peu plus sportif.
Summit of La Platte
Facing Pic Saint-Cyr, for the curious, there is a summit off the beaten track where you can enjoy a 360° panorama. You can see the Lure mountain, the Buëch valley, the peaks and valleys of the Baronnies Provençales and much more.
The Gorges of the Méouge
A walk through gorges is always pleasant, and in those of Méouge it's a real joy.
Along the Méouge Gorges with a return via Pierre Grosse
Immerse yourself in the refreshing atmosphere of the Méouge Gorges and the forest that covers its southern slopes.Starting from the Roman bridge, this route follows the course of the river via theGRP®® Sud de Buëch-Méouge (Baronnies Provençales Regional Park), then climbs into the woods of Pierre Grosse to overlook the gorges, offering several viewpoints.
Note that some people prefer to do it in the opposite direction so they can finish by cooling off in the Méouge!
Riou Gorges and Revuaire summit
A varied loop in the Baronnies Provençales, which runs through pretty gorges and then to a summit with beautiful panoramic views.
Izon-la-Bruisse - Orpierre
Another beautiful stage to reach the medieval village of Orpierre, surrounded by its famous cliffs. Straddling the Céans and Méouge valleys, this time it is the endless, narrow Chabre ridge that serves as the guiding thread for the hike, culminating in the picturesque Col Saint-Ange and its climbing walls.
From Izon-la-Bruisse to Saint-Auban-sur-l'Ouvèze via Perty and Arsuc
This is the third and final stage of a three-day tour of the Méouge and Ouvèze ridges. You first pass through the western face of the Montagne de Chamouse, with its magnificent beech forests, before reaching the remarkable Col de Perty. Then, you'll follow the ridge for several kilometres via the summit of Arsuc and Serre de Charbouisse, enjoying breathtaking views of the Alps and the Ouvèze valley. The last third of the day allows you to explore the hamlets of the valley, in a pretty rural setting.
The Crête de Chabre loop via Eygalayes and Ballons
This is the second stage of a three-day circuit on the crests of the Méouge and Ouvèze rivers. Starting and ending in Izon-la-Bruisse, the route passes through the two pretty villages of Eygalayes and Ballons before reaching the Crête de Chabre for a splendid view of the Dévoluy, the Écrins and the Ventoux.
The Chamouse mountain in a circular route from Izon-la-Bruisse
This is the second stage of the Tour de la Méouge, which you can skip but which is so beautiful! It's a distillation of the nature of the Baronnies Provençales, from the sunny Provençal adret with its aromatic scents to the humid beech forests, passing through pastures and lavender fields. A wild atmosphere and breathtaking views are guaranteed, especially on the Chamouse ridges.
The Pic de Saint-Cyr
The ascent and descent from this peak are through forest, with the link between the two via a beautiful ridge trail.
From Antonaves to Izon-la-Bruisse via the Méouge Gorges
The first stage of the Tour de la Méouge gets off to a beautiful start with a complete crossing of the Gorges de la Méouge. It then passes through Barret-sur-Méouge before reaching the Crête de Chabre for a splendid panorama of the Dévoluy, the Écrins and the Ventoux. Then you arrive at the remote hamlet of Izon-la-Bruisse with its spectacular view. It is possible to split the stage in two (recommended in case of high temperatures or bad weather and depending on the level of the participants) by spending the night at the Ferme de l'Ubac, before Barret-sur-Méouge.
