District:
Start at the entrance to the "Hutopia" campsite in the "Chalaval" district of Dieulefit. Coming from Nyons or Montélimar, head towards Bourdeaux on the D638 and turn left towards "Les Vitrouillères" just after and opposite the fire station and gendarmerie. Park before the campsite entrance.
(S/E) Continue along the road, pass the barrier and follow the track towards the combe or Ravin de Saleras.
(1) Leave the track that branches off to the right and follow the valley floor. Climb gradually up this small track until you reach a right-hand bend opposite a rock (La Mare).
(2) Just after this, leave the track and turn onto a path on the left that goes around the rock on the right and enters the woods. After a fairly steep climb, you will reach the ridge at the pylons.
(3) Continue along the track that follows the ridge to the next crossroads (Les 3 Pins).
(4) Turn left onto the path that enters the woods and reach the Chapel of Saint-Maurice.
(5) Continue climbing, following the summit along a less distinct path through the woods. Pass the summit (point 939) and descend to a path on the right.
(6) Continue straight ahead on the ridge trail. After a few metres, ignore a trail that branches off to the left and continue straight ahead until you quickly reach a viewpoint on a rock to the left of the trail.
(7) Turn around and return to the start of the trail on the left (ignore the first trail on the right).
(6) Take the path on the left that descends to the forest track and follow it to the left. At the edge of the woods, continue for a few metres until you find the start of a path on the right.
(8) Follow this trail into the woods and reach a hairpin bend in the track.
(9) Take the path that descends to the right and joins a small meadow on the edge of the ridge, above the valley. Continue on the path that turns left. Cut across two more hairpin bends and rejoin the track in a curve with a path opposite.
(10) Continue along this path on the right and rejoin the trail taken at the bottom of the valley.
(1) Turn left onto the track. Return to the start of the hike via the same route (S/E).
