Allow one hour out and back from Bourboulet to reach the summit of La Croix de Juliau (altitude 553m).
Tradition has it that this toponym owes its origin to the passing of Julius Caesar. The etymology of Juliau does indeed point to the name or forename Julius, but really has no connection with Caesar!
