A pleasant but sporty circuit to discover the enclave of Le Riols.

To discover the Bonnan valley as a family.

The small valley of Bonnan is towered over by the sheer faces of limestone cliffs. Over this 11km route, you will discover a landscape which alternates between green meadows, arid, barren hillsides and the grassy expanses and twisted oaks of the Caussenard plateau. A tuff waterfall: In karstic regions, infiltration water causes the formation of dolines (closed depressions in the relief) and other avens by dissolving the limestone. Most of the time, they reappear in the form of Vaucluse springs. A similar phenomenon exists in the Bonnan valley in the form of a petrified waterfall. The event occurs during periods of high water. The water pours down in a tuff cascade (non-homogeneous porous rock, often powdery, in this case of sedimentary origin) over a height of about forty metres to cover the sandstone (stable mixture of rock and clay). A natural well collects them. Once underground, they resurface as a Vaucluse fountain at Gourp de Fénérols.

Starting from the pretty village of Milhars, venture up and down the welcoming countryside offering a different landscape in each of the valleys. An ideal choice for a 10 km route of medium difficulty. This hike offers magnificent views of the Cérou and Aveyron valleys at various points along the way. Natural meadows, oak forests and ancient vineyards make up a varied landscape characteristic of this area on the fringes of Bas Rouergue and Grésigne. The little church of Saint-Projet de Larroque (12th-15th centuries), on the banks of the Aveyron, is a very pleasant place to stop: not only does it offer a welcoming environment, but it is striking for its sober beauty and the traces of its distant past. Take a diversion to visit the pretty village of Milhars, which boasts a charming rural heritage (dovecotes, ovens, wash-houses, etc.). The street plan is known as a ‘spiral’ because of the tightly-packed streets that wind their way up to the castle, and the itinerary takes you past rivers, fields and meadows, crossing streams, all the way to the Vère-Grésigne leisure centre.
