Description

Family stroll along the edges of Aigue Agnelle. A tour along the riversides at theheart of the Aigue Agnelle Valley which lets you reach to the parking area of the Ariane bridge.

Apart from 2 hairpin bends a bit steep, the entire route is on smooth terrain. 1 - Cross the Peyre Bartino bridge and continue until the Ariane bridge. 2 - From there, turn around and follow the opposite path. 3 - At the top, do not descend on the 2 hairpin bends mentioned above but continue straight on the track.
