Departure from the small hamlet of Lugné. In Cessenon, head towards Roquebrun D14. Continue on this road to Lugné. Enter the hamlet. Park on a small traffic island with recycling bins (square with the statue).
(S/E) Take the Chemin des Eucalyptus south-west for 340 metres. Leave this road and take an uphill track on the right. Follow it for 250 metres.
(1) At the first intersection, take the track on the right and continue for 230m.
(2) At the bend, leave the track and take a very narrow hunting trail on the left marked with a few cairns. The route is located in a dense forest of oak and arbutus trees. It is shown as a dotted line on the 1:25,000 IGN map and is approximately 800m long (between points 2 and 4) with a general west-northwest orientation. At the top of the path (contour line 210 m), you will come to an intersection of two paths. Take the left-hand path, which descends.
(3) At the end of the descent, turn right at a cairn. Continue straight ahead northwards on flat ground for approximately 250 metres. Then turn right onto an uphill path where you will find a cairn. Continue climbing for 100m through oak and arbutus trees until you reach the first scree slope. Cross it for 50m and reach the second scree slope: in the middle of this slope, you will see the dolmen. There is another dolmen to the right of this one, buried in vegetation and without its capstone. At the first dolmen, climb to the top of the clapas and turn right onto it. You will come out in a wood, and the dolmen is about 50 metres below.
(4) Follow the path back to the point where you turned off towards the dolmen.
(3) Continue along this path to the south, which leads to a wide track at the Castel Pourtié pass.
(5) At the pass, leave the track and take a small path on the right. At the end of the descent, cross a concrete weir. Continue straight ahead (north-west) until you reach a fork near a vineyard
(6) Turn right, then left onto the path.
(7) At the crossroads, take the track that branches off sharply to the right. This track takes you around Pech Redon (old yellow markings).
(8) At a vineyard with a hut at the end, take the track on the left, marked with an old blue sign. This will take you back to the fork in the two tracks.
(7) Head towards the vineyard you came through.
(6) At the fork you took on the way there, turn right (west). At a fork, continue straight ahead and ignore the path on the right. About 150m further on, turn sharply left and follow a track that makes wide bends. At the T-junction after a straight stretch, turn left and head for the Col de Castel Pourtié.
(5) At the pass, take the track on the right (south-south-east). You will reach an intersection that you took on the way there (1). Turn right and join the road which, to the north-east, leads to Lugné (S/E).
