By bike Le Filan

Opening

All year round.

Présentation

On this walk, you'll discover the maison forte de plaisance, the Filan forest, the old bell tower and the old village. You'll also enjoy a magnificent panorama of the Vercors.

Rolling and shady, for families to enjoy, head for the Pierre Sanglante via the rock road. 800m after the Tennis post, leave the road and turn right onto a good downhill path, with a view of the fortified farmhouse. At the Plaisance sign, go straight ahead on the right-hand path, and just before the road turn right towards the river, cross it and then climb a little steeply to reach a path. 200 m further on, at Filan, turn right, then left onto the road, following it for approx. 4.5 km. Gentle, shady climb up the Filan valley to the hamlet of Combemaure and the Transfo. Still on the road, at the summit keep straight ahead and at the small pass go straight on the downhill track. 100m further on, at Le Roc, go straight on, and 200m further on, turn right onto the beautiful forest track and follow it for about 2km to reach Forillon, with its panoramic view of the Vercors. In front of the house, keep right on a small section of descending tarmac. 500m further on, turn left onto a flat, rising path. This uphill section is followed by a stony downhill section. Take the steep, stony section on the left, climb a little and at Malaire turn slightly left uphill on a track, then downhill still on a track, a small section of tarmac to take a track opposite on the left, descending into the woods. At the crossroads, turn right onto the road and 500 m further on, turn right again, arriving opposite the house. Go back up 300m on the road to take a path on the left, downhill and stony, then straight ahead on the road. At the crossroads, turn left, then immediately right onto the footbridge and cross the old village by the lane. After the porch, turn left twice into the Rue du Bourg, then right into the Grande Rue, still uphill to pass the foot of the bell tower and arrive at the square.
