The precious saltwater well, for centuries one of the commune’s most important assets, and numerous oratories, often erected for commemorative purposes. The route climbs gently up a track to the hamlet of Les Laugiers, where it rejoins the D129 in the direction of Tartonne. At the entrance to Le Thouron, it forks right, then crosses meadows on the hillside before returning to the starting point.
