Walking

Leaving from the Tourist Office or the Saint-Bruno church, the countryside and the terroir are close at hand. In a quarter of an hour, small meadows and walnut groves appear which give a still rural character to the city gates.

You will discover a rural setting from the Monastery of the Visitation, rue du May, then frankly bucolic on the hill of Charauze with its polyculture in small plots and its old chestnut groves. Greenhouses for market gardening protect vegetables that you will find on the market in all seasons (salads, tomatoes, etc.).
Enjoy the views over the Chartreuse and the Vercors.
Many animals are also observable: poultry, sheep, horses and cows. They enliven the landscapes around the Murette and on the way back.

Opposite the Voiron Tourist Office, on the Mail, the Voiron market is held every Wednesday and Saturday morning (one of the most important in Isère with its 140 traders).
