Steps
1 | From "Le Couret", take the D26 for 150 m. (direction south-east) then at the first bend, leave it to follow to the right the small road that goes down towards the "Gourgue d'Asque" for 1.8 km. It ends at the parking lot of the old sawmill. |
2 | Continue on the wide boxwood path that dominates the "Arros" (interpretive trail). Cross the "Arros" on a bridge. The "Gourgue d'Asque" is a few meters on your right. |
3 | > Continuing beyond, by the wide road on the left bank, we reach the "Oueil de l'Arros" in a landscape of mosses, lichens and ferns: it is the "Petite Amazonie des Pyrénées (35 min. return). |
4 | Retrace your steps, leave the bridge to the left and take the road opposite, on the right bank of the "Arros": continue for a long time. After 2.6 km, it becomes a road that leads to the "Quartier Lasserre". |
5 | Continue straight until the entrance of Arrodets. At the junction, go straight ahead, pass the town hall and the church, turn left. At the crossroads (calvary), go down in front and join the D26. Follow it to the left for 900 m. until a crossroads. |
6 | Take the road on the left for 500 m. then after a bend, leave it for a gravel road on the right that goes up to the D26 (Saint Roch chapel). Follow it to the left and join the "Couret d'Asque". |
