Ground
0/ Leave the village in the direction of Sardières, cross the Saint-Pierre bridge and take the dirt road on the right, signposted "Parc archéologique des Lozes".
1/ Continue along the track until you reach the barrier and the entrance to the Lozes archaeological park. There are two routes available to you. Take the first route on the right and then the second. The route is marked by small black arrows.
As the rocks are very eroded, the observation of the engravings is subject to certain lighting conditions. It is therefore recommended to go to the site at sunrise or sunset, as the low-angled light accentuates the relief and contours of the engravings.
Return by the same route.
Prices

Reception
Period of practice
From 01/01 to 31/12.
Inquire in advance with the Tourist Office to find out the conditions of access.
