Description

0h00' Leaving the car at the car park, cross Via Ponte Romano and take the path which, after a short climb, reaches a signpost. Continue in the direction of Cillian on path leaving the ruins of the Roman bridge (1st century BC) on the left; turn right passing by the walls with a climbing wall proceeding on the nice flat and shady path. After a few beautiful views of Mont Barbeston, head slightly to the left and begin a gentle climb past vegetable gardens. Shortly before Cillian, you will come to a turnoff for a post set into the ground bearing the route logo for Mont Tsailloun (600m): ignore the turnoff to the right for Mont Tsailloun and you will soon reach the village of Cillian (615m) 💧.
0h10' From Cillian, continue along the road past a crossroads and onto the tarmac road that leads to Valyre. The slope becomes steeper as you leave the residential houses until you come to a new post indicating the turnoff for Moron, marker . Neglect the turnoff and continue along the tarmac road until you reach the hamlets of Valyre (685m).
0h20' When you reach the last houses, the road becomes a small road and, after a turn to the right, a mule track that enters the sparse oak and chestnut wood. With wide bends, you gain height until you reach the fairy waterfall.
