Introduction
An original walk that takes you up to the vertiginous Ebron footbridge, alternating between the panoramic trail and the forest path that offers original views of the turquoise waters of Lake Monteynard-Avignonet.
This original figure-of-eight loop offers a variety of pleasures and the best views, thanks in particular to the forest trail that winds along the lake between pines, boxwoods and oaks...
Pets welcome : yes
