A beautiful view over the Verdon Canyon at the begining. If you're lucky you will be able to see a lot of vultures bird in the sky.
Rougon, the village near by is their home.
The trail is fast on small rocks at the begining (double ply tyres are recommended) then switchback and high speed section to the end of the trail.

      Lots of downed trees (5 or 6 at least). Definitely not Red trail, but pretty fun. A nice counter to Switchbacks trail
      MyChaOS
      Fun Trail, almost too much flow. Not harder than blue , not even taking the hardest possible line would make it anywhere near black, but a nice trail nevertheless and the view from Rougon is really beautiful

      Plus on descend plus c’est joueur! La difficulté noire n’est pas justifiée.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
