Description
The mountain pasture trail passes through the hamlet of Les Bouts, then winds gently uphill at the foot of the Almet massif to the farms of Maroly d'en Bas. Your walk will be accompanied by the sound of cowbells.
The first part of the route is suitable for pushchairs (there and back). From the Maroly farms, the return journey to the hamlet of Les Bouts follows a lovely path that winds through the mountain pastures.
