Details

Pleasant frozen stream bed with four steep sections, linked by easier ground.

Approach # 5 minutes!

Park the car 200m before the roundabout next to the Notre-Dame de la Gorge and a restaurant. From the roundabout, cross the bridge giving access to the roman road. The start is just behind a large boulder with tourist information.

Route

The stream descends the rock outcrop “Les Rochassets” Climb it (4 main steps) until an exit, (left) onto the Rosière plateau.

Descent

Traverse the Rosière plateau to the SSE, (quite a long way) to reach the roman road, and descend this to the parking.
