Step 2

Take it to the right for 160m. Then turn to the left. At the exit of the bridge, follow the Berre on the track to the left, along the vines. After about 300 meters, go up the path to the left up to the D123. Go up to the right and the Col d'Amiel, for about 570 meters.

Step 3

Leave the road and climb to the left on the main track, ignoring the paths to the right or to the left. The unobstructed view allows you to contemplate the surrounding plain and the village.

Step 4

At Col de Mairolles, go back down via the left track. It winds through a forest of holm oaks on the northern slope of the Serre de Quintillan. At the D123, go down to the right towards the village. Do not miss an admirable watchtower watching the crossroads, during the visit of the village.

Be careful, the fire risk is often high, especially in summer, and can lead to flower bed closures. Find out before you go consulting the fire risk map for outdoor activities.
Fires strictly prohibited. Do not smoke and never throw cigarette butts in nature. Fires are numerous and catastrophic in our region. In the event of a fire or accident: give alert 18 or 112 from a cell phone.
Protect yourself from the sun and take enough water with you.
Avoid picking flowers and plants. Take all your trash. Close fences and keep dogs on a leash in pasture areas, villages and protected areas.

Mountain bike routes: the routes are often shared with hikers or other users (cars, tractors, etc.). Be careful and always anticipate that a pedestrian may be present around a bend to have time to brake if necessary. Pedestrians have priority in principle, slow down at crossings or stop if the configuration of the terrain requires you to do so.
Thank you and happy hiking!
