Forest

Embed this item to access it offline

Les Bouissettes is a very short trail perfect for families. It winds through the pine trees across from the village of Orpierre and offers a lovely view of the village and its cliffs, which are well-known for rock climbing. It’s a bit of an uphill climb, but it’s worth the effort… A short trail awaits you on the way down!
The rest of the route is mostly on roads.

Follow the green mountain bike trail marker No. 12

Description

From the fountain in the village square, head toward the Princes d’Orange campground. Cross through the campground and continue straight ahead on the trail.
At the intersection, take the left trail and continue on it until you reach the cell tower.
The trail continues on a path across from the antenna (down a slope). A few meters further on, it turns left and winds through the woods. The trail then comes out onto a road.
At the road, turn left and follow it to the village.
