Start from the Pont Romain car park in Eygalières on the D24.
(S/E) From the Pont Romain car park, simply follow theGR® 6 route north-westwards, which winds its way through vineyards and woodland.
(1) Keep an eye out so as not to miss the point where thisGR® leaves the track to head south under the trees and climb steeply towards the Col de Vallongue. This climb is very rocky but well marked.
(2) Stay on theGR® which heads west and follows the ridge (a very rocky path with a series of ascents and descents, some of which are quite steep) before reaching the Plateau de la Caume where it widens. You are then treated to a very open landscape.
(3) When you reach the road coming from the antennas, you can avoid a long bend by taking the shortcut that starts straight ahead. Return to the road.
(4) Continue left along the road until you reach a junction with several tracks and paths.
(5) Take the first track that descends to the right along the valley.
(6) Just before the gate, leave theGR®6and take the track that climbs to the right (generally speaking, you should follow this direction eastwards at the foot of the rocky ridge. Several tracks and paths lead in the right direction.
(7) At the edge of a wood, in a clearing, head down to the left and across the meadow to join the track you can see.
(8) Continue to the right.
(9) At a left-hand bend, take the track that branches off to the right (if you take the wrong one, you’ll end up in an olive grove; simply head back up to find the right path) and carry on.
(10) At a three-way junction, continue to take the track heading to the right and follow this main track until you rejoin theGR® coming from the left.
(11) All you have to do is follow the red and white markings straight ahead to return to the junction you passed on the way out.
(1) Retrace your steps along the route you took on the way there to reach the Roman bridge (S/E).
