The tourist service at Saint-Christol :
A pleasant and easy mountain bike route, suitable for beginners and departing from Saint-Christol.
The route begins with sections and paths that will ease you in gently to the trip. The atmosphere then changes in the Grand Bois (forest), where the terrain becomes a little trickier, requiring your alertness. Also be sure to keep following the mountain bike signposts, or the yellow hiking markings.
