Saint-Honoré walks
Valette loop via Fontagneux
A pleasant hike at the foot of the Piquet de Nantes and the Tabor, with beautiful views of the Obiou and the Grand Armet, passing through three lovely streams, then descending through the village of Fontagneux to change mountain ranges and walk at the foot of the Grand Armet, this time, and see the Tabor. The passage through old hamlets is also very pleasant for lovers of old stones.
The Tour du Pérollier
Le Pérollier is a small peak on the ridge separating the Lacs de Laffrey and the Alpe du Grand Serre resort. This circuit offers unobstructed views of the lakes and the Taillefer, Grand Armet and Belledonne mountain ranges. Note that in June, the meadows are particularly flowery (blue gentians and anemones, among others).
Le Pérollier via the Sentier du Diable
Seen from Lake Charlet and the climb to Tabor, the Sentier du Diable, which winds its way up the south-western face of Pérollier, is impressive, and its name deters many hikers from taking it. However, it is a pleasant trail with a fairly steady climb and is not particularly dangerous. We take it here to climb Pérollier (2,183 m), the third highest peak in the Tabor massif, and make a loop via Lake Charlet for the return journey.
Piquet de Nantes and Tabor circuit
The Piquet de Nantes (2,215 m) and the Tabor (2,389 m) near La Mure in Isère are the two highest peaks in the Tabor massif and can be reached separately, but the route proposed here connects the two peaks via a trail that gives an almost high-mountain feel while being easy and very pleasant. It takes only an hour and offers a circuit with beautiful views of the Matheysine lakes and the surrounding mountains.
La Pierre Percée from Pierre-Châtel
Follow the legend of the Pierre Percée (Pierced Rock) on this short circuit that will take you to one of the seven wonders of the Dauphiné.
The three Matheysins Lakes
A beautiful hike where, on the way there, you will walk along the shores of the Pierre-Châtel and Pétichet lakes with a short detour to see Lake Laffrey, and return via the Cholonge ridges at the foot of the Grand Serre.
Les Creys: glacial moraine of the Matheysine lakes
Don't worry, we are not in the high mountains and the glacier disappeared 15,000 years ago. The route is easy and short enough to be done with children. It is enjoyable and educational, with two panels explaining the geological evolution of the region and the formation of the Matheysine lakes.
Circuit from Pierre Percée to Lac de Pierre-Châtel
This circuit, which takes you twice through Pierre Percée, one of the seven wonders of the Dauphiné, allows you to enjoy the view of the mountains bordering the Matheysin plateau and takes you around Lake Pierre Chatel.
Rif Bruyant lake
A very pleasant hike. First along the Rif Bruyant stream, through beech and then fir and larch forests, and finally in a high mountain setting in the middle of the Cirque du Coiro.
Well-marked trails make the elevation gain on this hike easier.
Circular from Col du Sénépy to Pierre Plantée
A beautiful hike with magnificent views of the Trièves and Dévoluy regions, on a sunny hillside, ideal for the off-season. The slopes are moderate but the atmosphere is mountainous. It is possible to climb to the summit of Sénépy along the way.
Le Sénépy
A magnificent hike 35 km from Grenoble, with no difficulty, offering 360° views of the surrounding mountains.
The climb to this summit is a magnificent hike through the mountain pastures (one of the largest in the region).
La Peyrouse
This walk in Matheysine offers a splendid 360° panorama of the Chartreuse, Belledonne, Vercors and Dévoluy at the summit. Best enjoyed on a very clear day to get the most out of it.
Peaks of Beauregard and La Peyrouse
This relatively short and easy hike takes you to two modest peaks offering magnificent views of the surrounding mountains. It also takes you to one of the largest mountain pastures in the department.
Tour of the great lake of Laffrey
This is a beautiful, easy hike with relatively little elevation gain, which will allow you to discover the lakes of Matheysine and the surrounding mountains.
Le Sénépy from Mayres-Savel
Le Sénépy and its exceptional panorama from Mayres-Savel via the ridges.
Beauregard viewpoint in the Conest mountain
One of the most beautiful mountain pastures in the region: the Conest mountain, whose Beauregard viewpoint offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Grenoble mountain triptych: Vercors, Chartreuse and Belledonne to the north, and the Jonche valley and its lakes, as well as the Grande Tête de l'Obiou to the south.
Circular around the hamlet of Les Arnauds, returning via the hamlet's combe trail.
Prévourey Lake - Brouffier Lake
This is a pleasant short hike in the Taillefer Massif, which takes you to the edge of a small lake. The return trip offers a bird's-eye view of the valleys, the Matheysine, the Vercors and Belledonne.
Circular to Notre-Dame de la Salette
This magnificent circular, in the Beaumont and Valbonnais mountains, towards the sanctuary of Notre-Dame-de la Salette, offers breathtaking views of the Oisans massif, the Dévoluy, the Obiou la Matheysine and, further away, the Vercors massif.
Himalayan footbridges of Monteynard without the boat
This walk is a variation on the classic tour of the Himalayan footbridges of Lake Monteynard, which does not require a boat trip (for a fee) to return to the starting point. In addition, this route takes you to the Pas du Berlioz (very beautiful view of the lake) and the Pont de Brion. It is hardly any longer than taking the boat, as you don't need to go all the way to the pier, which is quite far away. However, part of the route is a return trip.
Le Chauvet from the Col de l'Holme
This hike is not marked, but it is easy to follow and the 360° view from the summit is magnificent.
Ruins of Saint-Michel Priory by Roche Courbiere
This easy hike, just outside the city, will first take you to a little-known viewpoint, La Roche Courbière, which offers a surprising view of the lower Drac valley, the Grenoble metropolitan area and the surrounding mountains such as the Vercors and the Chartreuse. The route then takes you to the ruins of the Priory of Saint-Michel de Connexe, which dates back to the 11th century.
