Description

Starting in the historical town centre of Saint-Vallier, this trail leaves the Rhône river to cross through gorges taking you to the mysterious "Dancing Rocks". Splendid views of the hills of Drôme along with the foothills of Pilat and Ardèche and the Vercors mountain range.



From the historic town center of Saint-Vallier, the loop leaves the Rhône at Ponsas and rises through the gorges to the mysterious Roches qui dansent. You'll then reach Saint-Barthélémy-de-Vals and the village of Claveyson, before crossing the Galaure valley. Take a break to discover La Motte-de-Galaure and the Saint-Agnès priory. The road then climbs towards Fay-le-Clos. Before turning onto the Valloire plain, you'll enjoy splendid views over the hills of the Drôme, Pilat, Ardèche and Vercors. A stopover in Laveyron is essential to enjoy the banks of the Rhône, the Ronceraie park and its many leisure facilities.
