A pleasant short walk. Take care on the descent – keep going straight ahead (a fallen tree is blocking the path), which means leaving the main track.

Thank you for your comments; I have just updated the listing to avoid any issues with private property.

I confirm point 2, and to avoid the no-entry sign leading to the horse paddocks, continue along the main path until you reach a gate on the right leading to a path that rejoins the route at point 3.

The path is indeed blocked at point 2 (private property). So, 50 metres before the barrier, at the start of the hairpin bend leading off to the left, turn right (at the barrier) onto the wide dirt track, which soon curves to the left. Pass the riding centre on your right and continue up the “Chemin d’Ongles”. 500 m further on, just after the cistern, take the left-hand fork and continue uphill to point 5, where you rejoin the route – and which is the highest point of the walk.
A pleasantly shaded walk with lovely views. The new route does not significantly alter the distance or the elevation gain.

Just to confirm what has already been posted: under point 2, access is prohibited by the owner of a riding school. We therefore took a detour via the "Chemin d'Ongles" above and were able to rejoin the route about 500 metres further on.

A pleasant, well-marked two-hour walk, though not particularly interesting apart from the lovely view from the ridge.

A lovely walk that every resident of Vinon should do at least once in their lifetime.
The description of the walk is too brief; it’s easy to lose your way and stray onto other paths.
Duration: 1 hour 40 minutes

Thank you for this well-described walk with some lovely 180° views. We added the walk along the Verdon to it, which offered a different perspective on the area.
