RANDOLAND : La Roche de Rame
Description
Stroll around the charming village of La Roche-de-Rame, made up of several hamlets and its lake, which is very pleasant for swimming in summer.
The walk starts from the town hall. Begin by observing this building in order to solve the first riddle.
With your back to the town hall, turn right, cross the small bridge, then immediately turn right to go in front of the old forge, a small fully restored stone building.
Go back the way you came, pass in front of the town hall, then turn left into Chemin de la Frairie. Enter the hamlet of Les Izoards and look for the house with a balcony at number 281.
After the bend, take the path that climbs to the right along the canal. Continue on this path until you reach the road. Cross it and continue straight ahead towards “Pra Reboul.” Always keep right at the two intersections. The path starts to go downhill and you will pass a strange bunker-like structure: a captured spring. Continue downhill towards the lake. At the junction of the paths, enjoy the view.
Do not take the fork on the right; continue straight on the path until you reach the intersection with the road. You will arrive at the parking area. Then head toward the lake and follow it on the left.
Pass in front of the lakeside chalet and turn immediately left. At the entrance to the lake campsite, follow the sign for “centre village.” Walk along the campsite, then at the junction turn right. Continue straight ahead to the next junction and turn left. Then turn right into Chemin de la Mairie. Take the first street on the right and stop at the fountain.
Continue on to the church.
Turn back, cross the village square with the war memorial. Carefully cross the Gap road (RN94) toward the Lucéo economic initiative center. Look for and observe the fire pump.
Feel free to take a walk through the park: a small herb garden is hidden near the back wall! Return to the square by crossing carefully again. Cross the square once more to go up the stairs alongside the shop. When you reach the road, continue straight ahead to return to your starting point.
End of the walk.
