The Sources of the Borne – 12,6 km
New route for this 21st edition, following in reverse the paths taken a few years ago.
A departure from the south of Félines to approach the Trioule bridge before turning left to join a shaded path along the old departmental road 906.
Arriving near an isolated house called “Villa de Chauvin”, the markings will indicate, on the left, a small illuminated path towards the place called Plagnes.
Then, a beautiful track will take you to the “Moulin de Caillot” to then enter the “Suc de Barret” massif where, by narrow paths sometimes shaded, sometimes sunny, you will find the most significant differences in altitude of this route. At the wood depot of “la Croite”, the refreshment point awaits you, then the track which will take you to the village of Almance which you will cross. Guided by the signalmen, you will face a great difficulty in the “Bois de Faux”. You will finish towards the timing mat by the “Malaliers” road.
Born' and Dore – 22,9km
For this 21st edition, the Félines Animation Committee has taken over the course created last year. The course's total elevation gain had been increased, with the added bonus of the return of the famous "wall" that made our trail famous.
With a departure to the north of our commune in the direction of Bonneval, passing through the village of La Souchère to reach the places called Champvieille then Labry taking fairly narrow shaded paths but without great difficulties, and a first refreshment stop to head towards the village of Bonneval by a bright stony path, and superb views of the woods of Jagonaz. A passage near the church to take you on a narrow path in the middle of the ash trees to La Nautelle. A small loop in a dark fir wood to then cross the Dorette on a magnificent stone bridge and arrive at the foot of the “wall” (100m of difference in altitude over 400m).
And passing under the village of Beaumont without ever reaching it by very shaded paths, you will return very close to Bonneval to take the path of the mill of Bény followed by the coast of the woods of Jagonaz north at the top of which will be waiting for you, the second refreshment point. For the return to Félines, a big descent is offered to you until the second stride of the Dorette, followed by the crossing of the woods of Lombres then Baumasse, to follow the line of the Sembadel / Estivareilles tourist train. To know your time, you will return as usual by passing very close to the town hall.
