ポンテのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Tough climb with a reward at the end

Very picturesque village. Magnificent.

hike on a route of the Huguenot Refuge Trail - beautiful landscapes

Nice walk. To do in good weather, because the ground is slippery.

The Bouanes road is the locals' gravel track par excellence. It allows you to easily connect Die to Sainte Croix. It is passable by mountain bike with good tires and has a low gradient. Thanks to it, you avoid the main road to the south which is much more dangerous. Arriving at Sainte Croix there are plenty of good swimming spots.

When the stone is wet, I found the path along the right of the river leading to the first waterfall, very slippery and difficult, even with good shoes, so I would recommend to cross the little river instead, it is shallow (3cm max) and quite narrow (3 steps) water proof shoes are needed though.

This small village perched in the mountain has the particularity of not having a church. The few inhabitants who populate this charming locality are mainly oriented towards crafts. Their specialties: goat's cheese, sheep's cheese, production of aromatic plants and more recently soap making, as well as a basket maker.

Located at the gateway to the Quint valley, this small village overlooks the Drôme river and its tributary, the Sûre. Nestled in a peaceful and pleasant setting, the town is home to the ruins of the medieval castle of Tours de Quint and the ancient monastery of the Antonines.
