    Roadbook

    1

    From the parking lot, return towards the D 145 and, without reaching it, take the small road on the left.

    2

    At the crossroads, take the gravel track on the left running along vineyards and pastures. At 700 m, in a sharp bend, leave the gravel track on the left that leads to the village and go right between two vineyards. Pass the vehicle turning area and continue along the path.

    3

    Climb right on the path along the edge of the pine forest (equestrian center on the left). Leave the path and climb the rocky track, ignore a track on the right and reach a crossroads. Take the track on the right that leads to a second crossroads (highest point).

    4

    Set off again on the track on the right, following the ridge line for 400 m (viewpoint on the aqueduct and Castries castle), then turn right into the plantation. Continue on the track on the right, descending gently through the pines.

    5

    At the crossing of four tracks, continue straight ahead on the lower track for 400 m.

    6

    At the intersection, descend by the path on the right and return to the outbound crossroads. Straight ahead, by the route used on the way out, return to the starting point.
