Montélier, between heritage and nature in Drôme
Welcome to Montélier, a charming village in the Drôme, located between Valence and the Vercors mountains. This peaceful village seduces with its rural heritage, its rolling landscapes and its proximity to exceptional natural sites.
A village steeped in history
Montélier has an interesting architectural heritage, with its Romanesque church of Saint-Prix, listed as a historical monument, and its old stone houses that recall its medieval past. The Château de Montélier, now largely disappeared, once marked the history of the region. Enjoy a stroll through the narrow streets of the old town, where beautiful stone houses and period fountains mark the route, enough to stop time for a moment.
A natural setting conducive to relaxation
Montélier is the ideal starting point to explore the Valence plain and the first foothills of the Vercors. A few kilometers away, the Parc de Lorient, a real green lung, offers an ideal space for walks and picnics with the family. We recommend a getaway to the Vercors, where you can discover spectacular landscapes, impressive caves and panoramic roads such as the famous Gorges de la Bourne.
Gastronomy with Drôme accents
The Drôme region is rich in flavors, with specialties such as pognes de Romans, a brioche flavored with orange blossom, or Bleu du Vercors-Sassenage, a creamy and mild cheese.
