Mons, gorge d'heric and La coste.

A pretty afternoon walk taking around an hour, on old paths. Starting in Mons and walking along the yellow/red path through the woods to the gorge. Once in the gorge, cross the first small footbridge and then keep right along the side of the river on yellow markers. This path is a little rocky but very nice. Just before the hamlet of La Coste take the wide path with no colour markings down to the voie verte. Turn right onto the green route and cross the bridge. Then follow the blue markers down to the bottom of the car park -picnic area. Beside the little garden under the arches you will find a tiny path between the river and the gorge car park. This pretty old path has badger setts on it and comes out at the top of the parking area. There are picnic tables, a cafe and toilets here. Just before the road follow the blue markers to your left and through the little hamlet of le verdier haut. Now turn right and cross the road to return through the wood to Mons. You can shorten the route by parking in the gorge car park. A get place to park a camper van too. Free until the 15th April then 3 euros fifty for cars and 6 for campervans
