로비악-로체사둘 최고의 MTB 라이딩 경로

Gagnières와 Beaulieu 사이의 오래된 철도 노선이 이제 도보 및 자전거 경로가 되었습니다. 이 경로에는 여러 개의 다리와 터널이 있습니다.

Le Martinet에서부터 2.5km의 아름다운 오르막길입니다. 정상의 고개는 주변 산괴를 탐험할 수 있는 여러 임도의 합류점이며, 그중 하나인 Trélis 길을 따라 Rochessadoule에 도달할 수 있습니다.

The stables are easy to miss, yet they are remarkable. The view from the castle is also very beautiful.

not as easy as it seems 🦵

The Via Ardeche railway cycle path is a nice idea in itself, but unfortunately, the perfect surface (asphalt) is only present in the tunnel sections. The rest is rough concrete, gravel, and even worse. It's pleasantly cool in the tunnel.

Anyone hiking through the hilly landscape around Saint-Jean and Saint-Florent today encounters silent traces of a rich past. Even before coal was mined here, iron was the most important commodity – since ancient times and especially in the Middle Ages. The medieval mines were simple and dangerous. Without ventilation and with shallow tunnels, they followed the iron-rich pyrite veins – often no more than 100 meters long. As early as 1512, a prospector's license cost a whopping 32 florins. The mined ore was further processed locally: From the Middle Ages to the 19th century, the valley was known for its nailsmiths – in 1676 alone, up to 45 masters worked here. Nature also tells its story: The strawberry tree (Arbutus unedo), typical of the garrigue, bears flowers and ripe fruit simultaneously. The rare Jason butterfly (Charaxes jasius), Europe's largest butterfly, lives in its environment and is clearly visible from June to September.

It looks like another world. Beautiful old walls with lots of moss and trees. Sometimes it's really difficult to ride a mountain bike.
