Aigues Vives, La Voie Romaine,

A lovely walk from Aigues Vives on the Avant Monts today. La Voie Romaine. Around 12 km. Blue markers. Parking at the edge of the hamlet near to the starting point of the walk. This is a fairly long walk of around 2.5 H or 3.45 H. After leaving the village and heading down la route de Saint Nazaire, continue by curving south and keep on this wide track as it twists its way through the garrigue and kennel oak forest. Beautiful changing views onto the plain as you go along. Finally you will reach a forest road, turn right onto this for a very short time before leaving it once again to join a small stony path heading uphill on your right. After quite some time you will join another track, keep right and this too will join the forest road once again. Here you can join a tiny path to your right on this junction or continue a few yards up to join the red/yellow+blue route continuing up. If you take the first shorter option you will shortly join the Reseau Vert going back down to Aigues Vives or continue on the main route still following the blue markers up to the top of the chestnut woods and back down to the village on the longer route.
