The Salamander Trail in Eppe-Sauvage

A woodland route in Nostrimont, ideal during hot weather or in autumn for its vibrant colours... An ideal family route, though it does include a few short sections with some elevation changes. The route is located near the ValJoly holiday resort, making it the perfect way to round off your day.
