Combe Lambert and the ridge path

A walk through Montrevel's woods which will make you discover a part of our dauhpinoise history. Then the landscape will open on one of the most beautiful views of the Vals du Dauphiné.

Follow the yellow signs and the following signposts:
La Touqueta > Bois vert > Taillis > Bois du seigneur > Châtaignier de Bourrique > Radio-balise > Chardenouse > Doissin > N-D d'Artézieux > Back to MONTREVEL

Take the path that climbs alongside the church to reach the woods of Montrevel. This is where the village once had its castle, so well evoked by the place known as ‘Château Désert’. Look up at the Trois Croix oratory and admire the view over the Hien valley and the wooded hills of Biol. Follow the path through the undergrowth in the Combe Lambert. You're sure to see violets in spring.

From the Bois du Seigneur onwards, the landscape opens up completely. In the foreground, the medieval castle of Virieu with its round towers pierces the hills opposite. In the background, the Chartreuse mountains, the Epine range and the Monts du Chat and Bugey come into view. View of Mont Blanc on a clear day.

Then descend to Doissin. On the way back to Montrevel, admire the buildings of an old tile factory as you head towards the marshes. Pass by the Notre-Dame d'Artézieux chapel before returning to the village centre and its old houses.


There is an alternative route from ‘Bois vert’ that takes you directly back to ‘Notre-Dame d'Artézieux’ (small loop 8.6km).
