A route frequented by villagers and mountain bikers. We came across puddles containing viper snakes and newts, as well as other insects, orchids and other rare flowers. Along the route, there were several unmarked tracks branching off; our curiosity would certainly have prompted us to explore further.

A pleasant walk, mostly through the woods. It’s easy enough to follow the path, but this route is best avoided after rain as some sections of the return path are very rutted and steep. Starting out on the road isn’t a problem; this Sunday, there wasn’t a car in sight. The longer route through the same forest is, of course, more interesting, but this shorter version is a great way to get some fresh air.

A lovely walk along the River Tarn and through the hillsides

More of a stroll than a hike, but utterly uninteresting. You follow the B-road on tarmac for 900 metres, climb up the hillside alongside a dull field, and skirt a dull wood. The view from the top isn’t exactly unforgettable; you head back down through the same field and return to the same tarmac road. In short, it’s rubbish, and you’re better off finding something else. I don’t understand why a hiking website would mention this walk: it’s better to suggest fewer walks, but ones that are actually worth doing. Here, there’s nothing! It’s not a forest walk: you skirt a woodland for a few hundred metres, but surely there must be better things to do.
The description is completely wrong: you don’t get to immerse yourself in the heart of nature!

If you follow the GPX track, there’s no problem; but points 3 and 4 seem to be swapped. The descent follows a path that’s very eroded towards the end. We followed the route on two smartphones, Visorando & Osmand = 6.57 km and 188 m elevation gain. The route and the description were not created at the same time or by two different people...
