[Trek] Saint-Vincent cave
From the parking lot, reach the “Authon” signpost and follow the way leading to Fontbelle pass. The route borrows a small part of the road and leaves at the first hairpin bend for a forest path on the opposite. Further, join the road once again and after a short rise in an embankment, turn left about 50 meters further.
Follow the road until the next signpost at Font Benette fountain (picnic area) and climb up the path heading to Font Benette crossroads.
At the “Carrefour de Font Benette”, take the path on your left and reach a forest one. From the forest path, you are only a few meters away from the ammonite’s slab on the right.
Take a look at the fossilised ammonites hills and go on the track.
At the « Sentier de la Grotte » signpost, reach the GR6 markings for a return trip to discover Saint Vincent cave. Once the “Sentier de la Grotte” junction reached again, go back down towards Authon by following the GR6 markings. On your way, catch up with the “Carrefour des Font Benette” you crossed earlier and follow the path on the left. The route slightly goes down through a beautiful beech forest and ends up in a zigzag under pine trees.
Go back to the departure road leading to Authon.
