It's an ideal starting point for the hike. There is a shelter to have a snack, and it's a few minutes from the Sainte-Luce farm. In spring it's a known spot for flowers and particularly daffodils.

The Gorges de l'Infernet is a spectacular canyon carved by the Souloise River, offering you a spectacle of steep rock formations and lush vegetation. You'll hike along narrow, steep gorges, with towering cliffs and striking geological features providing an impressive backdrop. Along the trail, you may even spot local wildlife, such as peregrine falcons and wild goats.

Coming all the way from Corps, the col du Parquetout is a long and steady ascent through beautiful landscapes and small villages. I took one of the most amazing gravel path I found that day through the forest and almost to the top of the col.

The Col de Lière is a little-known Alpine passage. Discreet, this summit is located at a modest altitude, but offers breathtaking panoramas and fun mountain bike trails.
