This year we start very late our hiking session. However better late that never! For this first outing I have chosen a low altitude place and with a very easy hiking. It is an isolated hill in front of the Jura that people driving along the road to Bellegarde have likely seen at the left side of the Rhone. This outing is short and compatible with the mus championship. Here is the proposal:
| Date: | Saturday, 28 June 2008 |
| Site: | Ste. Victoire - Chevrier (930 m) |
| Classification: | Very easy |
| Altitude: | 930 m (highest point) |
| Climbing up distance: | 450 m |
| Climbing time: | 1h30 |
| Total hiking time: | 3h30 |
| Starting point: | Chevrier (480 m) |
| Meeting point: | Val Thoiry at 10h00 am (close or inside Le Sabayon if open) |
| Remarks: | Panoramics |
| Access: | From ValThoiry, take D884 in direction to Bellegarde. At the height of Collonges after the round about continue straight for 1 km and take the first deviation to the left (road D908) which after another km will connect with road N206. Take the N206 to the left hand side in direction to Chevrier. Drive for about 4 km and then you take road D237 which reaches Chevrier. Park somewhere close to the Church. Driving time from ValThoiry: 25 minutes (20 km).

It is convenient to emphasize some useful items: please do not forget to carry on (wear) raincoat, hat/cap and sun glasses, warm gloves, hiking boots or sport-footwear with thick and non-slipping sole, enough food and drinks for the own consumption. Spear dry clothes and after excursion confortable shoes are very convenient.
Have a lovely weekend! Cheers! Jose.
