Français: Anciennes carrières d'extraction de schiste (ardoises). Passage migratoire de passereaux le long du petit cours d'eau. Nombreux petits chemins, milieux variés, petits plans d'eau, balade agréable avec intérêt historique. Beau point de vue en hauteur sur la région. Parfois un peu trop de monde.
