The tourist service at Lagnes :

Starting from the same point as the neighbouring circuit, No.41 "Tête du Soldat", this playful itinerary with winding and rocky paths showcases the unspoiled nature of the area while revealing its dry-stone heritage.

The circuit is livened up by a long ascent up to the peaks of Pouraques, followed by a wonderful descent all the way down into the valley; the Grande Combe. The downhill stretch is fun and fast, but you will have watch out for the mountain bikers who are climbing up the Grande Traversée de Vaucluse, signposted in the opposite direction!
