Coming from Castries, the car park is located on the right of the D26 at the end of a 2 km straight road, just before the bridge.
(S/E) Take the path eastwards and follow thePR® signs for 1.25 km.
(1) Leave the road and take the path on the right that leads into the heath between pine and holm oak trees. After 350m, the path opens onto an area with more sparse vegetation. Here, turn left onto the stony path that climbs for about 20 metres and follow it for 100m to discover a very pretty little chapel called La Capelette
(2). Follow the path north for 130 metres until you reach a large, open crossroads and turn right onto the wide path that curves around in a large arc to the foot of the aqueduct arches.
(3) To admire this structure, you can walk underneath it, along it and then back again for a total of 200 metres.
(3) On the way back, take the path that branches off from the aqueduct towards the north-east until you reach a T-junction. Turn right and after 100 metres, turn left (onto thePR®) towards the Domaine Départemental de Fondespierre, following a sports field.
(4) You can access the inner courtyard of the estate. Then, following thePR®, go around the buildings on the right. The path heads north-west between a long cultivated field and an olive grove. At the end of the grove, follow the path on the left until you reach the crossroads.
(5) Head south on the track lined with old plane trees. At the foot of the hill, keep right on the path that climbs up the hill and then descends on the south side to cross the aqueduct in a trench covered with slabs.
(6) Here, you have two options: follow the aqueduct to the right or continue for 20 metres and, at the crossroads, take the path on the right which will join the aqueduct after 600 metres. Take the aqueduct on the left where it disappears (tunnel entrance). Marked on the map.
(7) From there, descend to the path located about 20 metres below and follow it to the right, heading due west. It winds through the heath, passes a small drystone shelter and joins the D26 just after the right-angle bend.
Cross it and follow the path to the Romanesque bridge of Les Tourilles, where you can cross the Cadoule river on stepping stones.
(8) Return to the road and take the path below the D26, which leads back to the car park (S/E).
