Hiking - Around Sylvanès

A predominantly forested hike which, following a stream and winding paths, connects three truly unmissable heritage sites of Sylvanès.

Starting from Sylvanès Abbey, explore the wooded valleys that cradle the village. Steep paths offer a surprising sight: nestled deep within the Pessales forest, a Russian Orthodox church, built entirely of wood. At the end of the route, discover the old Sylvanès thermal baths, a relic of a bygone era and a haven of tranquility.

Caution: outside of summer, crossing the Cabot stream can be tricky.
