STROLL IN THE SAINT-GAUDINOIS
Saint-Gaudens is home to a path of the Rocher de la fleur de lys with an easy access of 125 m which is worth visiting
The path of the Rock of the Fleur de Lys : 2h15.
Difference in altitude: 125 meters No difficulty
From Saint-Gaudens, go under the tunnel that faces the Garonne bridge. Turn right at the stop sign and climb the côte de la Hajolle to the top. Leave the car here. Head south on the paved road down. Five minutes later, enter the woods on a small path going downhill, still due south. Ten minutes after the start, you reach the first intersection. Turn right onto the Bataillet road, which runs up the Angèles stream.
Half an hour after the start, a small cirque appears. Follow the direction indicated by the sign "Rocher de la fleur de Lys". A small steep path allows you to reach the crest of the cape of Lastodet (578 meters) and the aforementioned Rocher de la fleur de Lys (45 minutes). Then turn west, follow the ridge and then head north on the path that leads down to the hunters' hut. The table and benches are waiting for you for a snack break. Take the north/northwest trail that winds up the hillside under the oaks and chestnut trees. Arrows point to the Calvary Chapel.
At an hour and a quarter from the start, a fork appears and you must take the right branch. At the intersection, turn left and go up to the chapel. From there, you can enjoy a beautiful view of the Garonne and its plain. To get back to the car, go back.
