Pretty villages and beautiful countryside between Uzès and Nîmes

Euzet-les-Bains Town Hall. There are parking spaces available.

(S/E) Take the road to Alès that descends on the right-hand side of the town hall. Continue along Chemin des Camisards, which runs alongside a recent building.

(1) At the crossroads, take the road on the right. Pass the Artuzac stables and continue to the roundabout. Cross the roundabout and take the^second exit towards Saint-Jean-de-Ceyrargues.

(2) Immediately turn right onto the old Alès road. After 50 or 60 metres, after the^second house on the left, take the path that branches off to the left. Continue along this road called "Carrieu", passing alongside fields with horses (at least when I passed through in June), then more fields, before joining Chemin Gazouyer in Saint-Hippolyte-de-Caton.

(3) Turn left onto Chemin de Saint-Just et le Moul. Cross the Uzès road to reach Rue du Parc. You will arrive in front of the town hall, then the school.

(4) Cross the car park and take Chemin de la Calade, which ends at a crossroads. Take the path that continues along the road.

(5) Be careful not to continue following the stream. Continue along the path at the end of a vineyard, which joins a wider path above the vineyard.

(6) At the crossroads, turn right and follow Chemin des Galabrunes.

(7) Keep left, still on Chemin des Galabrunes, which enters Saint-Étienne-d'Olm.

(8) At the crossroads, continue straight ahead on Chemin de l'Olm. When you reach Place des Remparts, turn right, continue on Calade de l'École, and join Chemin de la Bergerie, which leads to the village exit.

(9) At the fork, ignore the paths that branch off to the right and left, and take the path between them, the one that branches off to the right. This path joins Chemin de Candouillère, which you follow straight ahead.

(10) At the end of this path, at Mas Nouguier, turn right and then, 50 metres further on, follow Chemin des Camisards on the left.

(11) Just before the end of the path, before the stele, take a path that branches off to the right. After 400 metres, there is a crossroads; turn left and then, 100 metres further on, turn right. Follow this path, which runs alongside woods on the left and fields on the right.

(12) When you reach Chemin du Clos de Droude, turn left. Continue along this road until you reach the centre of Saint-Cézaire-de-Gauzignan, the church, Place des 4 Vents, then Place de la Croix. Continue along Rue Basse for a few metres, then turn left onto Rue de Deydier, which becomes Rue du Cadenat.

(13) Once there are no more houses, ignore Chemin des Perriers on the right. Continue straight ahead and turn left at the^first street, in the middle of a multitude of vineyards. You will come to two paths that branch off to the left, one behind the other. Ignore them and continue towards Saint-Maurice-de-Cazevieille.

(14) At the end of this road, at the crossroads, turn left and then, a few dozen metres further on, turn right. The path will become a wider road, then an old tarmac road.

(15) When you reach the Font du Vivier road, cross it and take the^first left to arrive in the charming village centre. Take an improvised route through the village, then join the Mas de Gardies road, which heads towards Saint-Jean-de-Ceyrargues.

(16) Follow the road, which is a bit busy and not very pleasant, carefully, but only for about 400 metres. Go to the crossroads and turn left towards Saint-Cézaire-de-Gauzignan, Vézénobres.

(17) 200 metres further on, take the path that climbs up to the right. At the second bend, ignore a path on the right and continue. Then ignore another path on the right, as well as the next path (in short, ignore the three paths/trails that branch off to the right).

(18) From here, go straight ahead. Cross numerous paths and tracks until you reach Chemin de Nîmes, which becomes Les Vistes, a road that leads to Saint-Jean-de-Ceyrargues. Continue along Route des Vistes until you come to Chemin de Mont Redon on the right, which you should follow.

(19) At the fork, take the paved road on the left that descends, called Les Aires.

(20) At the end of the road, at the crossroads, turn left and continue straight ahead. Cross the Uzès-Alès road, take the road opposite and continue until you reach the town hall of Euzet-les-Bains (S/E).

An easy hike, alternating between villages and countryside. I don't remember if there were any fountains along the route, but there were very few shops, at least in early June, so bring plenty of water. And be careful on hot days, as some of the paths are in the middle of vineyards, so there is no shade.
