Colline De Comboire, Protected natural area in Claix and Seyssinet-Pariset, France.

Rising to 533 meters, the Comboire Hill features limestone cliffs, oak forests, and alluvial woodland areas along the Drac River banks.

The site received official protection status as an ecological and faunistic interest zone in January 2017, marking its environmental importance for the Grenoble region.

The military fort of Comboire stands as a testament to the strategic defensive positions that protected the Grenoble valley through centuries.

Multiple hiking trails allow visitors to explore different sections of the hill, with access points available from both Claix and Seyssinet-Pariset municipalities.

The limestone cliffs provide nesting grounds for European eagle owls and peregrine falcons, while supporting rare plant species like Juniperus thurifera.
