For this 3rd stage, small gears and big landscapes are on the agenda. The Ardèche mountains are a feast for mountain bikers, with moors of heather and broom. You'll discover a unique volcanic landscape with the sucs, phonolitic volcanoes shaped like “sugar loaves”. At Mont Gerbier de Jonc, a sentinel of dark lava, you can fill your gourd at the source of the Loire. Then, between woods and vast, undulating meadows, you'll reach Mazan-l'Abbaye and a steep, broom-lined path following wide tracks will take you to Lanarce.
