This short but challenging hike offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains (Montagne de la Baume). The marl terrain provides a beautiful setting where the vegetation struggles to thrive in the arid conditions. On the final stretch, the trail winds past beautiful fields of lavender.
Follow the Mountain Bike Trail No. 10

Description

From Entrepierres, the route begins with a stretch through the boules court’s recreation area. Head toward the road leading to the Crypte du Prieuré. A trail and a road leading to Vilhosc allow you to warm up gradually. The route continues along a trail through rolling marl hills. Mountain bikers are already treated to a few scenic views along the forest edge. It’s time to take advantage of the undulating marl terrain, which lets you pick up speed and do a few jumps. Head to the hamlet of Les Pignets, where the route heads toward the Pied du Bois trail. Join routes 10, 12, and the e-MTB route.
At the next intersection, turn right onto the short climb (at kilometer 6.2) along a rolling, shaded trail.
A final descent brings you back to the road. This road runs alongside lavender fields and the Priory crypt before rejoining the starting route.
