Among them, note the 4.5 km "Sentier des Vignerons" inspired by the youngest and the "AOP Coteaux de Pierrevert" appellation. Accessible to all, this loop of nearly 2 hours will allow you to discover the work of the vineyard and the winegrowers, the traditional grape varieties and vintages of the Pierrevert hillside, but also to observe the built heritage along the trail. You can take a break at the Saint-Patrice Chapel, installed among the olive trees and plan a tasting stop at the cellar!
