From Aubais to Junas, between quarries and mills

Moderate
Departure from Aubais (Gard)
This is a pleasant and easy hike, with no elevation gain, shaded and sheltered from the wind, with many points of interest: flowers in spring, quarries, mills, drystone shelters, as well as donkeys, horses and chickens. Follow the yellow markings, which makes this walk possible even without a GPS, and if you have the map, there are several shortcuts you can take if the children get tired. There are several good spots for a picnic.
The quarries of Saint-Quentin-la-Poterie

Departure from Saint-Quentin-la-Poterie (Gard)
This is a fairly shaded hike, with one section offering a lovely view. The quarries are a fun and peaceful place for a picnic. The distance is not a problem as there is little elevation gain, making this a hike that is accessible to many, with the added bonus of a visit to Saint Quentin and its pottery workshops on the way back!
