Done yesterday. Very nice view from the castle of Pellafol on the Rhône Valley and Vercors. On the other hand, dangerous return, unmarked, slippery, almost steep paths... It is surprising that it is not better maintained. Do not take it if you are not sure of yourself or with very young children. I preferred to turn back, come back the way I had come up, prioritize safety. Pity !

Made the 3.93km loop from the car park to the ruined castle, very nice tour with beautiful views, the route is faithful to the route

Walked the route on May 19, 2023. Beautiful with so many different types of plants and flowers; I really enjoyed that. The views were also very beautiful. The route itself was very slippery and in some parts difficult to pass. We had to climb and scramble.
