Description
At the foot of the Mont du Chat, St Paul offers 4 circular walks including one gentler alternative. The Boucle des Pins explores the countryside around St Paul, with its rural, mountainous landscape.
In the heart of a lively, open agricultural landscape, you can discover pretty hamlets, a varied country atmosphere and, on the higher ground, a glimpse of the forest. For the more experienced, it's possible to "couple" 2 or 3 loops as you wish.
Rando bonus :
- Mont du Chat lookout (1500m)
- The Chevelu leisure park
Caution: crossings and sections of departmental roads. Please be careful!
