10Km loop from La Taillede

A nice route through the forest, leaving from and returning to La Taillede.

The route is nearly all on forestry tracks apart from one small section on the way back which is a narrow footpath. So you could mountain bike this although for that small section you may need to carry your bike.


Instructions:

Set off from La Taillede and walk down the track past the pond on your left and turn left by the La Taillede sign.

Continue straight ahead until you reach a fork in the track.

Take the left fork.

Take the left hand fork here, shortly afterwards you pass a large rock and then join a wide forestry access track. Take the left hand route, going uphill.

Note: If you take the right hand fork it's just a longer route, you rejoin the forestry track lower down the hill.

Continue uphill on this track to 3.3km when you will see a junction:
