Le Pré d'Antoni cabin

Description

On the way, the cool grass of the green meadows attracts hikers, who never fail to take a break there. In the valley are contrasts and water, with each spring flower adding its special note. On the way towards the Chargès corrie, a sweet melody runs through the air from the herds grazing peacefully nearby. A few shy chamois may be glimpsed in the hollows of the green slopes. From Les Gourniers car park, cross the village and follow the path towards the Saint-Marcellin Chapel. The path then makes its way around the mountainside to a footbridge (Pont la Claie), then rises to the Pré d’Antoni cabin.
