It is a winding road that picks it's way through the slopes to deliver you at a small col amongst woodland. From here you can gain the ridge to the south and follow this with views to either side. Chestnut forest managed for la chasse.
At some point you must leave the ridge and we chose a sweeping descent through tiny villages. Perhaps the prettiest of these was Monoblet. Several locals sat drinking pastis outside a small, brightly-coloured bar opposite a church. We dropped on down back to St Hippo.
There are at least a couple of markets here a week. There was none this evening and we passed across the square and back up to the campsite. A shower and swim to cool off.
