Description

Starting point - From the car park located 50m above the starting sign, go up the street and walk along the cemetery. 50m after a cross, turn left to the picnic area.

1 - Take the track on the left and then the first path on the right which climbs into the oak grove amidst the remains of old buildings. When you reach the road, turn right until you reach the bend.

2 - Leave the road and take the downhill path (round trip option: continue on the paved road until the top of the peak - 360° panorama, orientation table). Halfway, viewpoint on the hilltop of Vodable. Continue until you reach a T-junction.
