Description

Enjoy the comfort of our electric bikes, which are accessible to everyone, and set off to explore the first foothills of the Garrigues that surround the north of the city of Montpellier, where several tributaries of the Lez catchment area flow.

Passing by the Château d'Ô folly, we will follow the course of the Verdanson alongside it to reach its source, where the former home of the writer Joseph Delteil is located.

We will head to the village of Grabels, nestled in a lush green setting where one of the sources of the Mosson, the Avy, flows – a river much loved by the writer.

After a glass of wine and a snack at the Fabrique à Vin, we'll set off again near Goule de Laval and then pass through the Hôpitaux-Facultés district.
