Departure from Mendive (Pyrénées-Atlantiques)
A magnificent and varied hike that allows you to discover the mysterious Occabé cromlechs. After a climb in the shade of a beautiful beech forest, you arrive at the beautiful Occabé plateau with its horses, cows, sheep and famous cromlechs. The view across the plateau is magnificent, especially from the summit of Occabé, which rises to an altitude of 1,456 metres. Descend through the woods and return via a beautiful little path that runs alongside a river to the car park.

Departure from Saint-May (Drôme)
This hike follows the beautiful Léoux stream. Littered with natural pools, it offers beautiful places to cool off. The slopes quickly converge to form beautiful rocky gorges. You then leave the gorges on the western slope via a fairly steep stony path.
The return journey is along a track offering beautiful views of the gorges and surrounding mountains. Then a path and a section of road take you back to the beautiful village of Saint-May.
