The Val de Villé Tourist Office publishes very well-produced walking guides. Today, we’re following Trail No. 12, known as the Circuit de la Honel, which takes you through villages and forests with scenic viewpoints and rocky outcrops.This walk is particularly lovely in spring as the orchards are in bloom and the views are still unobstructed, as the forest canopy has not yet fully closed in.A fairly easy walk.
