Welcome to La Mure

La Mure lies on a high plateau in southeastern France, within the Isère department of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, where open uplands, forested ridges and traces of mining heritage create the setting for a reflective holiday in La Mure. Beneath the town stretch ancient coal-bearing layers shaped over millions of years. Meadows, wooded shelves and remnants of old extraction terraces alternate along the slopes, recalling the region’s long industrial history. Travellers choosing a B&B in La Mure often follow the paths overlooking the Drac River, whose deep valley channels wind toward Monteynard. The D529 road crosses the plateau along historic connections once used to transport ore and timber. Staying in a villa in La Mure brings visitors close to viewpoints facing the Obiou and the Dévoluy range, where natural ledges echo early pastoral land use. The surroundings invite quiet ridge walks, cycling routes toward the lake’s suspension footbridge and resting spots with panoramic views. Anyone seeking a holiday home in La Mure discovers a landscape where altitude, forest and open plateaus meet in a balanced whole. This upland town shifts its atmosphere with every change in the mountain light.
