Description

1. Take the path along the right-hand side of the road for 1km until you reach the entrance to the camp-site. From the car park, turn left onto the forest path. A few metres further on, take the path on the left, then turn right at the next crossroads. Go straight on at the next intersection.

2. On the forest road, turn left and a few metres further down take the path on the right. Follow the GRP then take the right-hand path at the next junction. Back on the forest track, turn right. A little further up, take the left-hand path. Continue through the forest until you return to the track, go right then take the path opposite.

3. Once you reach the top of the clearing, you're in Pierre Arnoux. Take the left-hand path from the hut to the lookout and back. Back at the hut, take the outward path through the silver birch until you reach the car park. Then turn left at "l'Empouyère".

4. When you reach the spring, take the left-hand path downhill. Go straight across the forest track twice. Turn right at the fitness trail, then left through the undergrowth. From here, follow the Barnnafret stream back to Savines-le-lac and the start.
