The Camel

Highlight • Summit

One of the still visible elements of the Roman aqueduct of Gier, where nature and time have played with the stones to give them this improbable shape reminiscent of a camel (or more surely a dromedary!).

Descent to the Garon

Highlight • Trail

The 2 descents to the Garon are difficult. Still, a wonderful course. A ford just before the washhouse (impossible to take the stairs with an electric mountain bike on my shoulder for me) Very nice this ford. Very nice course!!!

Garon Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Metal bridge that spans the Garon. Depending on its light, this place becomes very bucolic.
