Route for road bikes / hybrid bikes / gravel bikes
On this route, you’ll cross or ride alongside the Grand and Petit Anguillon in turn, as well as several ‘roubines’. You’ll also follow drovers' roads, listening to the wind rustling through the ‘canié ’ and the murmur of the water at the Martelièro waterfalls.
You’ll discover what makes this land so unique: a marshy area that has been transformed into arable and habitable land thanks to a network of canals and ‘roubines’, built up over the centuries, which helps to secure, drain and supply water to the region.
