Hiking on the molasse slopes around Chantemerle-les-Blés. Enjoy a beautiful undergrowth itinerary and unobstructed views over the surrounding countryside.

Leaving the old post office square, turn left up the old staircase that runs alongside the chapel; you'll come to the church forecourt (which can be visited), then go back down the large staircase; at the bottom, take the path on the left and join rue des Lilas, climb up to rue des Baumes, which you cross to take a path. Continue until you reach the top of the quarries, where an arrow invites you to turn right to discover the tourist board offering a view of the village, the east-facing church and the statue of Notre Dame des Blés. Retrace your steps and continue along the path, past a detached house and up into the woods. You reach a tarmac road; after 500m, turn left, then right 100 m further on, cross a district and turn right: a dirt track leads you uphill into the forest. After 15 minutes in the undergrowth, join a tarmac road heading north. At one point you'll see the end of Veaune's bell tower on the right; continue along the asphalt road until you come to a dirt track on the right which leads down into the woods. You are now about 2 hours 15 minutes from the start. At the end of the wood, turn right again onto the tarmac road, continue for 500 m and turn left onto the country lane, continue for 750 m: you'll come to the road leading down to the village.

À noter Tips :

Romanesque church of Chantemerle. You'll come across the "Les Hauts de Mercurol" loop.
