Downhill single track richting Argentière

Highlight • Other

Nice downhill towards Argentière, with deep gorges of the river Fournel on the left. The single track is not technical, so you can make a lot of speed. If you encounter pedestrians, moderate your speed.

View of the Fournel Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

View from the other side of the Col de la Pousterle, close to Puy Saint Vincent. I like to light the barbecue here or interrupt my journey for a well-deserved stop with a view.
