Beautiful view of Gruissan after a stony ascent

Highlight • Other

It goes up over scree, partly along vineyards, then down partly stony paths but nice. Probably rather difficult to walk in the dark.

Along the Etang

Highlight • Other

Sometimes the path is extremely rocky... it pays to be careful!

The L'Etangs de Gruissan are brackish water lakes that communicate with the sea via the Canal de Grazel. In some places you can see bizarre salt formations that are caused by partial drying out due to the strong sunlight.
