                From Saint-Jean-Pla-de-Corts, these two marked trails lead up to Vivès and then Llauro*.
A beautiful hike on wide, comfortable paths and tracks, which can be split into two.
The markings are visible in the direction described.
The return from Llauro is along a ridge path and then, from ::12:, along a DFCI track.
Not recommended for those who do not like wide tracks and paths.
Fortunately, the landscape makes up for this monotony.

                This is a beautiful round-trip hike that can be done in summer as it takes place mostly in the woods and on the northern slope for the most part.

The Tour de Batère, at the end of the hike, crowns the outing with beautiful 360° views.

The original path is very difficult to follow: the markings and posts have disappeared!

                A beautiful, steady climb to Coll de l'Espinassa (Espinàs). It is entirely possible to follow the track to the large picnic area in order to maintain a constant gradient.There are no fewer than six working fountains on the way to the pass (10). Then there is a very steep descent to the picnic area passed on the way there (6). And a pleasant return to the village.During the hike, sheltered from the tramontane wind, there are views of the Roussillon plain, Les Aspres and Canigou.
The GPX track is necessary on this route given the paths taken, which are not necessarily maintained.It is possible to do this hike in the opposite direction, starting from the Trois Vents fountain (6), so that the return trip along the track is less steep. The aim of the hike is to reach the Coll de l'Espinàs (10), and the return journey can simply be made by the same route.
