Observe the traditional architecture of the Bigourdan houses in Orincles and their pebble walls along an easy route, which can be enjoyed by the whole family over half a day while strolling. From the top of the hills, you can enjoy a beautiful view of the Pyrenees. This walk can be done in just under two hours at a brisk pace.

A half-day hike through meadows and fields, from Bénac to Hibarette, then through the wooded hillsides from Bénac to Layrisse.The two circular loops link up easily, taking 3½ hours for hikers and 4 hours for families. This route is well suited to Nordic walking and can be completed in 2½ to 3 hours.The second section is well suited for some short interval training, with three hills of 1 km each.

An excellent way to climb the Merdanson whilst remaining almost entirely under tree cover, which is very pleasant in summer. No technical difficulties during the summer months. There is also the option of climbing the Pic de Pas de Broc. => Map and GPX track are very useful.
