Ampus, 4th Heritage Walk 2023. This year, with the kind permission of the military authorities of Canjuers, the municipality of Ampus associated with that of Châteaudouble organizes a hike where we will enter the camp of Canjuers to climb on the site of the former iron mine of Beau-Soleil. Along the way, we will also visit the Micouraou well, an old mine entrance and some ruins of the Lavelan farm that housed a grocery store for miners.
To revive this era, we can count on our historian Ampusian Thierry who will tell us the history of these sites.
ATTENTION however: due to its difficulty, this hike is for experienced walkers and is strongly discouraged to children: +10km to travel, 500m of elevation gain for a duration of about 6h on very paved paths. Being on military ground, it will be impossible to turn around or wait without the group. You must bring walking shoes, cap, Kway, plenty of water and a picnic.
Limited places ( 50 participants), reservation required at 06 87 75 47 32. The full names of each participant will be communicated to the military authorities in advance.
Meet at the parking lot of the boulodrome d'Ampus, from where we will leave by carpool to the place of departure of the hike. ( located 7km, about 15 minutes)
