In Cessenon sur Orb, take a pleasant break, thanks to the path crossing the village through the centre. The shaded terraces await you with open arms.
Before you head towards the bridge that crosses the Orb towards the campsite, you can walk around the village through its most isolated streets, amazing!
Cross the bridge, the GR winds between the path and the housing estate and gently takes the direction of Roquebrun. You follow the Orb river on the left bank to come out on the D19 at the level of the Maynard mill, a micro-power station on the Orb. A few hundred metres on the famous D19 and a last small pass: you arrive on the heights of Roquebrun..
The entrance to the village is on the banks of the river Orb. Near the mills (the oil mill, the grain mill and the fuller, which was used to crush the broom stems), find the flood marker: impressive.

The path winds its way through the village's narrow streets before heading north towards the hamlet of Laurenque. The signposts leave the asphalt road to take a wilder path on the right bank of the Ruisseau de Laurenque. Walk in the direction of the state-owned forest of Saint Michel. After crossing it, discover a final descent, long and technical, in the direction of Poujol-sur-Orb.Make a long stop in the village: everything is a reason to discover it.
