Take the direction of Salins de Gruissan, then Domaine de l'Evêque. You can park in the parking lot of the domain, the start of the hike is a little ahead on the road.
Before the Domaine de l'Evêque, you reach the shell beaches bordering the Ayrolle pond. When you arrive at the Pointe de la Grève, turn right and climb the few stony meters that separate you from an exceptional view. At the edge of the "calanques gruissanaises", you overlook the plain of Narbonne and the sparkling waters of the Etang de Campignol. In the summer on this trail, the cicadas are particularly vigorous. The return is via a stony track through pine forests and vineyards.
