Discovering Les Olliviers
Description
A bucolic journey! Extremely accessible, this route combines physical effort with a visit to our heritage.
From Chorges station, follow the railway line then cross it, heading for Montgardin. The road rises slowly until the hamlet of Montgardin comes into view. At the crossroads, take the left fork and follow the road to Champ Peyron.
Continue on the main road and cross the Jacques and its well-cleared plateau, with a very fine view of various mountain ranges. At the next crossroads, turn left and continue towards Les Olliviers.
Now embark on a pleasant, gently sloping descent to Chorges. When you reach the N94, follow it for 500m, then turn left to cross it.
