ドロームの湖・トップ8

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.

Very pleasant gravel trail, not technical and allowing lovely views while passing close to ponds.

Very beautiful! Quite a tough route to get there.

Lake Champos is an ideal place during the summer season for swimming. Here you will find supervised swimming, something to have a drink at the water's edge and water activities such as pedal boats, paddles and slides. Very popular with the inhabitants of the region, the attendance can be important during the weekends of July-August.

These are two pleasant little lakes where it is good to stroll. You will find a walking path to go around it. Benches and picnic areas are installed there. This place is well known to fishermen who go there for its carp, pike and even its rainbow trout.

The Bancel ponds are located in the municipalities of Hauterives and Moras-en-Valloire. True havens of peace, they are made up of woods, meadows, ponds and ponds. They are part of the “Home des Bois” gîte. This one offers atypical cabins for rent around the ponds.

The Lac de Manthe and its municipal park offer an ideal place to relax in the middle of the hilly Drôme. Walks, picnics, benches and tables available, children's games, you will find something to have a good time. Without missing the access to the old wash house and the mill which will delight curious young and old children.

Beautiful trail, almost continuously from Crest to the Rhône. Unfortunately, logically, only as much gradient as a river has.
