Between Saint-Chinian and Assignan, this route follows a GR® de Pays trail to explore woods and vineyards. On the way back, the Combelongue valley offers the chance to discover a "village" of drystone shelters and a plaster mill, now used for grain, which dates from 1854 and was originally used to grind gypsum.

This peaceful walk through the vineyards of Saint-Chinian offers magnificent views of the village and the Grage beyond. Drystone shelters with evocative names, educational panels, Notre-Dame de Nazareth and, in the background, the Avants-Monts ridge and the silhouette of the Caroux massif: it's all here.

Walk among the clapas.

Starting from Prades-sur-Vernazobre, this loop passes through the Col du Lac, approaching Berlou and Col de la Maurerie. This is an easy hike with no particular difficulties. There is some shade, but most of the route is on unshaded forest tracks. You will walk through vineyards offering beautiful views, particularly of the Caroux.

Discover a landscape of heath, vineyards and limestone cliffs, as well as a remarkable architectural heritage. The village of Cazedarnes has two points of interest. The main one for hikers is the magnificent view from the top of the cliffs over the village below and the Foncaude plateau. But there is also a church entirely decorated with frescoes. This is the work of Nicolaî Greschny,who used Byzantine techniques consisting of applying natural ochre pigments to the still-fresh plaster. In 2012, the entire parish church, including its wall decorations, was listed as a Historic Monument. To climb the cliffs, follow in the footsteps of the pilgrims of Santiago de Compostela andtake the GR®787, known as the Bretelle de Foncaude, for most of the route.GPS or Visorando app useful
