The Durzon Spring
IGN cards
Description
The foothills of the Larzac as a backdrop, a landscape of meadows and undergrowth, a paceful walk along a laughing stream that irrigates the country of Nant, called "the garden of Aveyron".From the car park, take the road on the left towards Mas du Pré and cross the pretty bridge (you can see the hamlet on the left).At the iron cross, turn right on a wide dirt track which successively runs along meadows and fields. Then it shrinks to enter the wood. The Durzon River is nearby.At the intersection, leave the small tuff bridge on the right (private property of the descendants of Victor Hugo) and turn off towards left. 200m further, at the junction, take the right path along the river and continue for 800m to reach the spring.From the source, cross the Durzon on the concrete footbridge and take, at the bottom of the meadow, the path that goes up on the right towards Mas de Pommiers. Then follow the asphalt road to the starting point.From the point 4: you can return to the starting point by the same route as on the way out.
