Here, it feels like everything is green—the trees, including tree trunks, rocks, and stones; the ground—where there are no leaves, there's moss. A very pleasant section of the trail leads from the Petite Cascade de Tendon up to the La Brostille viewpoint (from there, continuing to the Grand Cascade).

Petite Cascade de Tendon – Small Waterfall in the Countryside Tucked away in the sparse forest near Tendon lies the "Petite Cascade," the smaller of the two waterfalls in the area. An idyllic spot where the water cascades over rocks into a moss-covered streambed – tranquil, natural, and refreshing. 💧 Ideal for a short rest, a few atmospheric photos, or simply to pause for a moment. 💬 Tip: Worth seeing even when the water level is low – best visited after rain or in spring.

A beautiful, rustic stone path runs along a small forest stream up the valley. It's a perfect circular walk, taking in the Grande Cascade de Tendon and the Petit Cascade. Highly recommended, especially when the sun is shining beautifully through the trees.

The "Petite Cascade de Tendon" is also very impressive. The water cascades 10 meters into a thunderous drop in two stages.

The smaller of the two Scouet waterfalls. Although smaller, it is no less impressive than its big sister downstream.
