The tourist service at Mérindol :
The route is nice and short, at the foot of the south face of the Petit Luberon, between scrubland and rolling hills.
After the initial climb comes a section of relatively stony path and tracks. The rocky landscape is breath-taking, with beautiful views on the way to La Durance and the limestone of Camargue in the distance... This route is an ideal preface to the next circuit (no.37), which is longer and more difficult.
Caution: Beware of the livestock guardian dogs in spring on the limestone
