Take a break and explore the riches of Lac de Paladru, while tantalizing your taste buds. The ideal combination of a visit, a walk and a delicious lunch in a restaurant.

Step 1. Musée du Trièves
Located in the historic district of Mens, the Musée du Trièves traces the rich and fascinating history of this territory, from prehistory to the present day. Explore its permanent and temporary exhibitions dedicated to the region's unique rural heritage. For an interactive experience, take part in the Jeux du Trièves and discover "Les mystérieux visages du dragon", a fun tour that combines exploration and learning.

Stage 2. Auberge de Mens
At lunchtime, settle down at the Auberge de Mens, where you can choose between a sunny terrace, a shady patio or a bright dining room. Enjoy creative seasonal cuisine, made entirely on site, for a moment of conviviality and
local flavors.

Stage 3. Tour of Mens
After lunch, discover Mens, the "historic capital of the Trièves". A short stroll will take you up to admire the superb surrounding scenery, with views of Obiou, Châtel and Mont-Aiguille. Along the way, don't miss La Fabrique du Trièves or Le Raccourci, two must-see addresses for local crafts, on the emblematic Route des Savoir-Faire du Trièves.
