The route follows the top of the cliffs of the Gorges du Gardon, which overlook the river by about a hundred metres.

Descend to the Gardon twice, then take a short walk on the large cliff at Russan.

This hike is only permitted from 1 July to 14 January This circuit, on the right bank of the Gardon, alternates between balcony paths overlooking the Gardon gorges with unobstructed views to the north, then descends to the river and climbs back up through a wild valley. On the heights, the cliffs offer arches and caves carved into the limestone rock. Moderator's note Please note that some sections of the trail are in poor condition. See reviews
