Tree trail - North loop

The Groupe de Passionnés de Nature de Vallabrix (G.P.N.) invites you to discover trees and shrubs, learn about their characteristics and enjoy the beauty of nature, always with respect for the environment.

Start: Town Hall parking lot, Vallabrix

You are in the Mairie, Foyer, Isabelle Autissier School parking lot. Leave the parking lot by the road below the school, admire the very large oak trees in the park on your left, and you'll come to the road; take the opposite direction to the Cave Coopérative, but be very careful crossing it!
Drive past the old cellar on your right:
Le Grenadier N° 4 and Le Néflier N° 5.
Continue straight ahead, past the public garden with the communal compost bins and :
Le Cèdre N°30.
Continue on Chemin du Grand Planas as far as the cross: Croix du clos D'Ozon.
Head straight down the steep slope, and don't miss on your right:
L'Arbousier N°36. The road continues and crosses the Alzon, a little further on your left:
Le Platane N°3. Continue along this road for a few dozen metres and turn right at the top of the hill, along the vineyard. Further on, you'll pass a mazet on your left; the road makes a large S at this point, and you're almost at the end of the vineyard. In an unwooded nook on your right, you can't miss the magnificent :
Le Chêne N°1.
Continue for about 30 m, the path bends to the right, at the end, on the tarmac, take the road downhill, before crossing the Alzon again, you'll see on your left:
L'Aulne or Verne N°31. As soon as you have crossed the Alzon, turn left:
Le Noisetier N°23. Continue and turn left up the grey clay path, where you'll come across sea urchins (fossils on the ground) on your left:
Le Genêt N°27. Continue to the left, and near the Madonna, you'll see on your left:
Phoenician Juniper N°32. Turn left down the path and you'll come to a road. Turn right, and on your right: Le Genévrier de Phénicie:
Le Frêne N°19. Continue to the crossroads and keep going straight downhill towards Alzon:
Le Laurier Sauce N°21. A little further on, before the right-hand bend, you'll see :
Le Sureau N°33. You'll reach the Alzon on your left:
Peuplier N°18. Almost at the same level on your right:
Ailante N° 26. Next to it, take the path upwards and to your left :
Yew N° 22. Continue until you reach the road (take care) and turn right into Rue du Porche. At the bottom of this street, turn right and continue to the Place de l'Horloge, where you'll find the church:
Le Murier N°15. Opposite the church, take the street back to the parking lot. This is the end of the north/west loop.
