Itinerary

Depart from outside Vizille Castle (17th century), a listed monument and a major historical site in Dauphiné. On 21 July 1788, the Assembly of the Three Orders, is considered to be an event which started the revolutionary process.

Follow Rue Général de Gaulle for a few metres and then turn right and pass under the archway.

A few hundred metres further on, take Pont des Allas bridge on the right and follow the path along the castle walls towards Vizille toll gate.

At the junction behind the walls, take the path on the left up towards the panoramic viewpoint.

Panoramic viewpoint.

Walk down a gentler slope than the one on the way up.

At the junction, turn left towards Vizille, pass Sous Grand Combe before arriving at Pont des Allas bridge. Take the same path as on the way there to return to the castle.
