Piégon walks

In the mountains of the Baronnies, imagine a lost hamlet inhabited by giants... Skeletons with very long shins were found in the crypt of the chapel. They are the source of the name of the locality.

A lovely walk through the undergrowth and apricot and almond orchards, with beautiful views of the Ollon valley and Mont Ventoux.

A lovely, pleasant walk in the Baronnies under the holm oaks, with magnificent views of Mont Ventoux and the surrounding peaks. The Saint-Jean d'Ollon Chapel is well worth a visit.

A short hike in the Nyonsais hills with panoramic views of the Baronnies.

A short hike that can be completed in half a day, with views of the Lance and Ventoux mountains and the Baronnies.

A very beautiful hike starting from Nyons. The route follows mostly marked trails (GR®9and yellowPR® markings) through oak and boxwood undergrowth. The scent of thyme often accompanies us. Much of the walk is along the ridge, offering beautiful views of Nyons, the Eygues valley and Mont Ventoux. Magnificent viewpoint at Garde Grosse

A relatively easy mountain bike ride, although a little technical on the descent to Combe Sauve. There is little traffic on the paved sections. You will ride through broom and goats, if they are out, and can stop at Col Flachet to enjoy the view, as it will be too late afterwards, as the descent is through oak trees.

This loop of around 27 km, with no major difficulties and regular climbs, allows you to discover the Nyons region and its most famous peak, Garde Grosse. The paved roads are quiet, except for cyclists. In spring, there are a few streams where you can cool off.

Hike starting from the village of Beauvoisin, in the heart of Drôme Provençale, nestled in its magnificent mountain setting. The Baume Noire massif, the Linceuil and Taillade mountains, the Ventoux and the Baronnies will be your landmarks throughout your walk. You will cross no fewer than six passes to return to Beauvoisin. The breathtaking views over the long Costes ridge are sure to stay with you.

A rocky promontory in the Baronnies, Le Cougoir offers beautiful views of the Drôme and Nyonsais regions, particularly the nearby Montagnes de la Lance, Miélandre and Angèle mountains.On a clear day, you can see as far as the Diois, Dévoluy and southern Vercors regions and the Southern Alps to the east. A loop alternating between single tracks, forest paths, pastures and ridge crossings.

A very pretty hike in the southern hills above Vaison-La-Romaine. Alternating between small paths, forest roads, footpaths and even the bed of a dry river, the route will take you to a very large drystone shelter in perfect condition, an outdoor charcoal kiln and a very old chapel. Sheltered from the mistral wind, this hike is as pleasant in winter as it is in summer.

Located north-west of Mont Ventoux, in the Ouvèze plain, the village of Entrechaux is dominated by its castle, perched on top of a hill. Let's climb this hill! The view from the castle is extraordinary, and it's no coincidence!

A walk that takes us over small mountains through pine trees, oak trees, vineyards and lavender fields. A condensed version of the Drôme Provençale starting from the medieval fortified village of Venterol with its characteristic wrought iron bell tower. A hike to be enjoyed in spring, autumn and winter, but not recommended in summer due to the heat.

A rugged hike offering magnificent views from a rocky outcrop.

A beautiful walk through the woods below Saint-Maurice to the start of the Saint-Amand ridge. Moderator's addition on 13 March 2021: GPS useful for this hike, see reviews.

A beautiful, sunny circular loop, relatively sheltered from the Mistral wind, which allows you to visit two charming villages in the Drôme Provençale. The route winds its way through vineyards and olive groves, offering beautiful views of the Valréas plain, the south-west of the Baronnies and as far as Mont Ventoux, with an original passage through the safres hills.Due to the presence of numerous trails that are not all listed on the IGN map, we recommend using the app's GPS on this route.

A tour of the countryside around Séguret to discover the Vallon de Prébayon and the ruins of its monastery, then the Notre-Dame d'Aubusson chapel.
