Saint-Vincent-la-Commanderie walks

Hike to climb to the Cross of Saint-Vincent-la-Commanderie. Circular starting at the Auberge des Templiers (opposite the village church). Half road / half trails.

Saint-Vincent had a commandery inthe 13th century. "In the footsteps of the Knights Templar" is an easy walk at the foot of the Rochers de Treillaras cliffs, often on the edge of the woods, over gently rolling terrain with beautiful views of the plain.

From Peyrus, a varied circuit passing through the Pas de Saint-Vincent and the Pas du Touet. On the upper part of the route, hikers will enjoy views of the Rhône valley, the Ardèche and the Vercors.

A good half-day walk among the pines, boxwoods (what remains of them), beech trees and lawns.

The stronghold of the bishops of Valence, whose rights to this castle were confirmed in 1238 by the German emperors, Pellafol has always had the same lords as Barbières, although it had a different suzerain. This 8.5 km circuit takes you around the castle in Barbières, via the Col de la Sambie.

While the Pas de Saint-Vincent and Pierre-Chauve are classics in the area, the route described here is less so... You'll need strong legs to climb the 300 m ascent below the Pas, save some energy to reach the summit of Pierre-Chauve, and a good sense of direction to reach Tourniol... but what a treat for the eyes!

This short hike takes you through beautiful landscapes and lovely trails in the foothills of the Monts du Matin and the pretty village of Peyrus, nestled in the Lierne valley. It is not particularly difficult and is accessible to any walker with good footwear.

A walk to enjoy with a group or family around the village of Peyrus.

Walk in the Cirque de Peyrus along theGR®93trail. Very pretty view of the edge of the Vercors massif (Col des Limouches).

Short, easy hike around Château Rompu. Walk in the cool air along the Marette, climb in the shade, enjoy beautiful views of the valley, and return via the top of the village. From the viewpoint, you can see Crussol, the Chapel of Sainte-Marguerite, the bell tower of Montélier, etc. with the naked eye. However, a pair of binoculars is a welcome addition.

Geological curiosity formed by a large stone arch that resembles a cave entrance.

A magnificent short hike on the Vercors plateaus, with a 360° view of the Valence plain and the village of Léoncel.
