The Roubines walk
On this route, you will in turn cross or follow the Grand and Petit Anguillon rivers, pass through roubines (canals), and walk along drovers' roads whilst listening to the sound of the wind in the ‘canié’ and the sound of the water at the ‘martelièro’ waterfalls. You will discover what makes this land unique: a marshy area that has become arable and habitable thanks to a network of canals and roubines built over the centuries, which helps to secure, drain and supply water to this region.
