Saint-Gervais-sur-Roubion walks

Before exploring the narrow streets of the fortified village of Saint-Gervais-sur-Roubion, discover the rich Valdaine plain. You will cross the Ramières du Roubion, a preserved, shaded natural area where biodiversity reigns supreme.

This lovely loop along the ridges of L'Izard and Mont Laroche offers magnificent views of the Roubion valley as far as the foothills of the Vercors and the 3 Becs. Starting from the pretty village of La Touche, the route passes the castles of Rochefort-en-Valdaine, then the truffle fields of Janeston. The hike also crosses the pretty little hamlet of Moulin de Bay on the riverbank, via a succession of varied paths and trails, which are sometimes steep but only for short distances.

This is an easy hike that alternates between cool woodland and wide open trails on the plateau. You will pass through the hamlet of CÎtelles with its small chapel and waterfall, which is only accessible from above. The return journey follows the stream, where you can take a dip in places. The route crosses the river four times via small bridges or large stones. This is a very pleasant walk in summer, and the breaks by the water are very welcome.

On the border between the Baronnies and the Diois, this route takes you to the cliffs of Eyzahut with the large arch carved into the cliff, the famous "Trou du Furet". Caution: tricky sections. Route reserved for experienced hikers.

A short hike in a magnificent setting. The undergrowth alternates with open views of the landscape and beautiful panoramas. Taking the loop in an anti-clockwise direction allows for a more gradual climb and a descent with a beautiful view overlooking Pont-de-Barret in front of you.

Along the river, along a wide track, through the pinewoods and up a steep incline: these are just some of the variations that will give you your first taste of mountain biking in an always pleasant setting. Ideal for beginners and families!

Hike starting from Poët-Laval, offering sweeping views of the Vercors, the Rhône Valley and northern Vaucluse.

Following paths and small tracks, mostly through woodland, this walk offers some beautiful views and the remains of an ancient hilltop fortified village. The top of the village, where three crosses stand, offers a magnificent viewpoint with an orientation table. There is a 270° panorama of the foothills of the Vercors and Diois, Roche Colombe, the Trois Becs, the Montagne de Couspeau, the northern Rhône valley and the Ardèche mountains.

This loop leads to the moving ruins of the former Aleyrac Abbey. Along the way, you will enjoy views of the Grignan plain and the valley.

A beautiful hike with a great diversity of the volcanic Coiron landscape. The top of this volcanic peak offers a view over the Castle of Rochemaure and the Rhône Valley, the Lavezon valley, the Baronnies, Mont Ventoux, and the Vercors.

On the border between the Baronnies and the Diois, Saint-Maurice is famous for its chapel and ridges. There is a beautiful view to the north with the forest of Saoû, the Trois Becs at Roche Colombe, the Grand Delmas and the Montagne de Couspeau in the background, and to the south, the Montagne de la Lance and, on a clear day, Mont Ventoux.

A lovely walk along the hills of the Dieulefit region.

The west summit of Saou forest, which marks the beginning (or end) of this forest.

At the foot of the Aiguilles, you will pass through a wide variety of environments. Wetlands and arid areas alternate between the Vèbre and the Mediterranean slopes of the Pas de l'Estang and the Palloir.

This is a pleasant family walk, the first part of which takes place in the forest and leads to the Monastery of Aiguebelle, located on the loop. The second part leads through heathland and lavender fields to a plateau where the view gradually opens up to Mont Ventoux, the Dentelles de Montmirail, La Lance, the Baronnies and, closer by, the Château de Grignan and the Donjon de Chamaret.

Short, easy walk around the pretty village of Réauville.

The Saracen Caves at the ruins of the old village of Béconne provide a short walk through the woods and fields of lavender and lead you on an enjoyable route among the vestiges of the past and let you indulge your imagination.

The Montagne de la Lance holds a special place in the Drôme Provençale. Easily recognisable by its long curved shape, it towers over the plain at a height of 1,300 metres and is therefore visible from quite a distance. A vast panorama opens up as you reach the summit by following the ridge.

A classic peak in the Drôme Provençale, offering a magnificent 360-degree panorama stretching from the Rhône Valley to the Hautes-Alpes, Ventoux and Diois. The departure point from the Fontlargias lodge offers a shorter loop route than other options, on good paths with no technical difficulties.

A pleasant walk in the hills above Crest offering beautiful views of the southern Vercors, the peaks of the Saoû Forest, the Ardèche mountains and the Drôme valley. As a bonus, you can explore Crest and its heritage at the start and end of the walk.

A lovely autumn hike offering numerous views of the Vercors, the peaks of the Saoû forest and the Baronnies. The route crosses rural farmland, where vineyards and fields give way to forest. There is a bit of road at the start.
