Travel through the countryside around Assas to discover the region's unique manade and bullfighting tradition. Along quiet roads, you'll pass traditional manades, where herds of bulls are raised for the famous bullfights. The landscape is marked by vast open fields, rugged terrain and typical Provençal scenery. This route offers both a cultural experience and the chance to enjoy the beauty of the landscapes of southern France.

Nice little shaded Romanesque bridge, allowing you to make a welcome stop between two portions of dodger.

PS: be careful it does not date from the Roman era, but is in Romanesque style, an important nuance!
