Étang de Chichoué (Réserve domaniale du Biros) walks

First stage of the Petit Tour du Biros. From the Anglade car park, a steady climb along theGRP® Tour du Biros to the Passerelle des Pichès, then a detour via the Chapel and the Isard Forest Hut. Then, after returning to theGRP®, you arrive at the Cabane d'Illau. This is followed by a steep climb up to just below the Étang d’Araing dam and finally the arrival at the Refuge Jacques Husson de l’Étang d’Araing.

A beautiful line hike, which requires you to leave a vehicle at the finish beforehand. From the village of Razecueillé, the route takes you directly to the Pic de Paloumère, offering magnificent views of the Piedmont to the north and the highest peaks to the south, east and west. The route to the finish is very varied: forestry paths, ridges, old paths that are a little forgotten and therefore poorly marked, beech forests frequented mainly by wild boar and roe deer.

No particular difficulty and a beautiful hike. There is a taxi service that will take you from our departure point to our arrival point for €5 per person. It is not possible to drive your car to the arrival point for the start of the lake hike.
