Walking - Le Bois Prieur - St-Pierre de Boeuf n°1

Between the Rhône and Pilat:
Feet in the water,
Head in the clouds
Mémoire Pétribocienne has installed interpretive panels on the local heritage of St-Pierre-de-boeuf "the footprints of time" :https://www.lamemoirepetribocienne.fr/index.php/les-empreintes-du-temps/
Cross the D 1086, pass Bonnardot. At La Chana, turn right onto Chemin de l’Alléon. At the top of the path, you'll see a small building known as "Maison de la Sorcière" (Witch's House). A little further on, you'll see the Château de Volan (Malleval commune).


At the end of the path, turn right then immediately left onto the St-Marin ascent through the undergrowth, to reach Le Bois Prieur. At Le Bois Prieur, continue until the intersection, then turn left (pay attention to the signage) to descend back to the village. On the road to Chèzenas, take the lane opposite to arrive at the cemetery square where the installed fountain originates from an old village square: Place du Carcan.


Take the passage de la Trêve which runs along the cemetery, then turn left to join the chemin du Petit Malin which leads back to the starting point.
