GRANDE TRAVERSEE DE L'HERAULT - DIO-ET-VALQUIERES/BEDARIEUX (ITINERAIRE SUD)

Fairly easy, this first stretch of the southern branch of the Réseau Vert® will show you all the colours. It offers some beautiful views of the red earth – the “ruffes” – at Salagou and goes through old bauxite quarries where the minerals contained in the rocks colour them ochre, red, white or yellow. The vegetation is in unison with this festival, alternating between evergreen oaks, strawberry trees, bushy heathers and boxwood. Please note: physical climb on Montbarri.
