The Jaur, Olargues, France.

A lovely walk along the vioe vert and the Jaur this morning. This is a super round walk taking about 45 minutes to an hour. Start at the car park beside the vine yard with the round tower just off the main road between Mons La Trivalle and Olargues. Then head along the mostly shady vioe vert to reach and cross the red bridge. Now head past the lovely little pizza place which serves super pizzas and a small version for lunch. Turning left and left again around the school/college. Now heading back towards the river, take the first right onto a small track down to an old mill ruins. Keep on this small track along side the pretty Jaur river until you reach a junction. Turn left onto a grassy track continuing beside the river. Soon the path takes you up and over a large rocky area on a tiny path to reach some wonderful views of the valley and the mountains. Keep left here at the golden post. Continue down to a little beach, then on through the woods to reach a larger track. Keep right until you reach the junction at the bridge. Turn left and cross the bridge. Soon you will be back at the main road opposite the vine yard and it's house with the round tower. The walk is unmarked except for the golden post.
