Trail n°5 – Les Balcons de la Durance

On this circuit there are superb viewpoints over the Escale reservoir, allowing you to see the changes in the landscape caused by the dam. The first 3 kilometres of this loop are coupled with circuit no. 8 “La Rouerie”.

Don’t miss a visit to the old village of Vière, also called the Vieil Escale, where fountains, cobblestone streets and old stones mark history. Continue on the track, leaving the Champ de Vin farm on your right. A little further on, leave the common markings for circuit no. 8 to take the track on the left towards Volonne. A path then replaces the track. After passing near the old villages of Vignorgues, go back up a new track that will guide you to Volonne.
The return to L’Escale will be via the Tour du Lac trail.
