Description

This route allows you to quickly access the Mejan and Tarn cliffs loop from the House of the Vultures (40-45 mins). Great views while climbing or going down.

Old shepherd and hunting trail to quickly access the plateau. The trail is not marked but is in good conditions.

From the House of the Vultures' parking lot, follow the road for less than 100 meters until you reach a small staircase. Leave the beehives on your right and start climbing up.

The trail is easy to follow. At 1.05km, you'll reach a fork. Go left for the Mejan plateau, go right for Cassagnes.

A lot of wildflowers along the path. Vultures can be spotted circling above your head as well.
