Miélandre du Col d'Espréaux
On the border between the Baronnies and the Diois, in the Drôme Provençale, the Miélandre mountain, with its grassy slopes on either side of the ridge, is covered with pastures. From the summit, which offers a 360° view, you can admire the Alpages d'Angèle, the Montagne de La Croix, the Lance mountains, the Trois Becs and Mont Ventoux.
The Vautour Mountain
A beautiful hike with a sustained climb to the summit. A lovely 360° panorama rewards your efforts, not to mention the views along the hike (Lance, Miélandre, Angèle, Montagne d'Autuche, Ventoux, etc.). Vultures are part of the spectacle. The route alternates between trails and tracks, with a short section of tarmac. Much of the route is in the shade.

Around Paulhiet
This easy little loop allows you to discover the charming hamlet of Paulhiet. The route, with gentle slopes (both uphill and downhill), mainly follows wide paths and a few small, quiet roads. The route is mostly shaded, winding its way through woodland and hills. It is best to do this walk when the lavender is in bloom, as there are many lavender fields around Paulhiet.

A rugged hike offering magnificent views from a rocky outcrop.
La Lance via Les Guilles
There is a climb of nearly 900 metres to reach the summit of La Lance. This hike can sometimes be quite strenuous.
The Tour du Courbiou from Venterol
A walk that takes us over small mountains through pine trees, oak trees, vineyards and lavender fields. A condensed version of the Drôme Provençale starting from the medieval fortified village of Venterol with its characteristic wrought iron bell tower.
A hike to be enjoyed in spring, autumn and winter, but not recommended in summer due to the heat.
Montagne des Ventes
This is a short hike, mostly through wooded areas with regular openings offering beautiful views of the Dieulefit and Bourdeaux countryside. In particular, you can see the Romanesque church and the 12th-century (private) castle of Comps, the entire Saoû Forest, from Roche Colombe to Trois Becs and the Couspeau Mountain.
The Col d'Aubenas circular starting from Nyons
A half-day's walk to tire yourself out a little, circular from Nyons, surrounded by olive trees, with lovely aerial views. The route winds through the forest and then follows the River Eygues.
