Voie Verte de la Vaunage
From Fontanès to Caveirac, you pass orchards and olive groves, vineyards and meadows, with hills covered in holm oaks and pine forests and dense garrigue. You'll see manades (bull farms) and, just before Sommières, a splendid panorama of the Pic Saint-Loup. From here, you can access a number of villages and tourist sites in the Pays de Sommières. Departures are possible from Sommières and Calvisson.
Unlike a cycle path, which is reserved exclusively for cyclists, a voie verte is a facility reserved for non-motorized traffic:
bicycles, pedestrians, rollerbladers and sometimes horseback riders. The Vaunage greenway is built on a former railroad line.
Ideal for beginners, families or a leisurely stroll, set off for adventure on this unsuspected itinerary!
Connected to the voie verte, two cyclo-découvertes loops on roads shared between bikes and cars allow you to extend your escapade: the Le Vidourle loop from Sommières (34 km) and the Les Olivettes loop from Calvisson (21 km).
