Saint-Restitut walks

This is a pleasant walk along small paths, mainly through the woods. The various vantage points offer 360° panoramic views of the surrounding plains and mountain ranges. Crossing the underground quarries of Saint-Restitut gives you an insight into the difficult work of the quarrymen. There are numerous remains of dwellings around these quarries. A visit to the village of Saint-Restitut is also enjoyable.

A family-friendly trail that explores the troglodyte village of Barry, one of the finest and largest in France.

This is a magical place that attracts many curious visitors. Unfortunately, the routes suggested on the signs are very old and the markings are random. Some trails are not shown on the IGN map. This loop is a good option for finding your way through the multitude of trails and getting a first impression of the site. Superb panoramic views and moving evidence of human occupation of this area from prehistoric times to the 20th century.

Discover the remains of local history: 11th-century Barquets Chapel, 1852 Martinet aqueduct bridge, Druids' Basin, 19th-century pumping stations, traces of an old quarry and troglodyte dwellings, St-Jean Chapel, ruins of the castle that was once the hideout of the Baron des Adrets.

An easy circular for the whole family, starting from the Val des Nymphes site with its 12th-century Romanesque chapel, pond and springs, 2 km from La Garde Adhémar. This circular takes you through a mini Provençal Colorado that will delight children. However, avoid this route after heavy rain (it's slippery!) and during big game hunting season at weekends (wild boar hunts are quite frequent).

Above the Val des Nymphes, the IGN map refers to so-called "sacrificial stones". This magnificent hike allows you to see some of them, then revisit the magical site around the chapel.

A beautiful route for exploring history and its vestiges. The geology of a little-known site (very beautiful passage through the ochre cliffs of a mini-Colorado). Gallo-Roman cult at the Val des Nymphes, springs and priory. Lapidary tanks reminiscent of ancient work dating back to Gallo-Roman times (millstones, known as "sacrificial stones", ancient wine presses dating from late Antiquity to the 12th or 13th century). Medieval fiefdom of the Adhémar family in the 12th century.

Most of the walk is through the woods in the Drôme Provençale. This route offers beautiful views of the Rhône valley and lavender fields, as well as a village classified as one of the most beautiful in France, with some buildings dating back to the Renaissance.

This is a short, easy route that can be enjoyed by families with young children. Almost the entire route is shaded. These old quarries were dug into the hillside to extract sand. They were then used by the Germans during the Second World War to store ammunition. Then, in the 1970s, they were converted into mushroom farms. They are now disused. It should be noted that the first quarries were open-pit. Their locations are marked by the presence of several lakes.

A circular loop, mostly shaded by undergrowth, where the trails are regularly used by the inhabitants of Chamaret and neighbouring villages. There are therefore many tracks, so you will need to remain vigilant if you want to find the well-hidden drystone shelters. In addition to the description, we recommend using the app's GPS.

This easy route will allow you to discover two charming villages in Drôme Provençale with a rich architectural heritage. Pleasant in all seasons, it winds its way between vineyards and lavender fields, offering views of the Lance mountain and the nearby Baronnies from the plain.

Family walk along the Lez. Different crops, including lavender, oak trees and vineyards, contrast with the cliffs. Pass through the quarry carved into the sandstone where thousands of millstones were carved for the mills.

A short family walk through heath, vineyards and woodland.Not particularly difficult, but not suitable for pushchairs.

Sometimes in the woods, sometimes in the vineyards, this walk takes you through the countryside of the Rhone Valley and Mont Ventoux.

A walk without too many difficulties and numerous headlands along the route.

A pleasant, easy hike. Very charming thanks to the magnificent view of Grignan Castle, residence of the Comtesse de Sévigné, among others. Passing by the summit of Les Montines and a "sea of hills".
