Description

This short break which lasts less than one hour starts from Saint-Izaire, runs along the tracks of the ancient vineyard and offers a scenic view over the village mainly made of red sandstone.Starting point is from the Place de la Bascule (carpark under the bridge) towards Faveyrolles via the D60. Follow that road which slopes gently down for approximately 1 km, then take to the right the « chemin des Vignes » that soon brings you back above the village. This path used to run across the vineyard of Saint Izaire that stretched over the whole hillside. Today, oak trees and other shrubs have taken back the site.After approximately 1 km, leave that track and turn right into a steep sided path that slopes down and is lined up with a double hedge (before doing so, we recommend you to keep walking on the « chemin des Vignes » for a hundred metres and enjoy the panoramic view over the castle and the village).The descending trail leads you back to the village nearby the castle which is worth visiting (this path is rather steep and requires caution).Get back to the starting point by calades and narrow streets.

Ambiance

This charming stroll takes place on the hillsides of Saint-Izaire. Although oak trees and shrubs have taken the place of vineyards, the site still offers reminders of the wine-growing tradition and how it was related to the village. A magnificent scenic view provides the highlight of this stroll which is the perfect complement to the visit to the village with its calades and its Episcopalian castle.
