'Walks around Grenoble'

From Poisat to Romage.

If you leave on foot from the hill behind Poisat or Eybens, you can easily get to the hamlet of Romage by a direct route through woods and meadows. The footpaths are well signposted by the SIPAVAG. An oddity on the way: the old military camp of Poisat.
