August 9, 2023,Forêt de Saoû Nr. 5 rot

Rather average tour. The entire ascent has to be tackled on very coarse and loose gravel. The largest part of the descent consists of forest paths. Only at the end finally come a few trails.

October 23, 2024,Boucle Raillon 470m – Forêt de Saoû au départ de auberge des dauphins

Route mainly on forest track, rolling uphill and downhill

November 20, 2021,Tour de la Forêt de Saou

The track that goes around the forest and well maintained does not require a demanding technical level. On the other hand, a good physical condition.
In terms of landscape, it will remain closed overall, the entire track being in the woods.

Route mainly forest road, heavily gravel (lime gravel), unfortunately hardly any view of the gorge to the right or left of the path. They are not right again! It's really around 900/950.
