District:
Park in the main square of the village of Rémuzat, opposite the Tourist Office and the Maison des Vautours.
(S/E) Turn right towards a small square and take the road that climbs up into the village, to the left of the hotel restaurant. Leave the village via Chemin du Puy, then follow the road that climbs up to the right. At the entrance to the retirement home, continue on the track opposite until you reach a left-hand bend and a grassy path on the right (Chemin de Béatrix).
(1) Continue along the track, pass two hairpin bends and when the track levels out, look out for a wide path rising to the right, due east.
(2) Turn right, then turn right again at the next left-hand bend. Follow the smaller path, pass a hairpin bend and continue until you reach the start of a path on the left, marked by a cairn.
(3) Turn left onto the steeply ascending path. This climbs towards the Pas de l'Eygues, running halfway up the Ravin de la Charbonnière. At the bottom of the ravine, the path is equipped with a handrail, as it is slippery due to water running over the stones. Continue through the woods and after a few hairpin bends, you will reach a grassy track. Follow it to the right until you reach the crossroads.
(4) Turn left onto the track, go through a hairpin bend and join the Col d'Enclus.
(5) Leave the track at the pass and take the path that enters the woods and climbs towards the mountain. A few metres further on, turn right (not shown on the IGN map) to begin a gradual climb with large hairpin bends below the summit of the Aiguilles and arrive at a small pass.
(6) Continue to the right towards the top of the cliff. Leave a path on your left and reach the foot of the cliff. Follow a handrail on the climb, where you will need to use your hands to help you. The first handrail makes a small bend to the right and the second allows you to reach the summit of the Aiguilles. This section is exposed but not very technical.
(7) Begin the descent a few metres, heading south, following a rock slab on your left, then make your way towards the ridge of the Montagne des Gravières, on your left, towards the west. The path is not very clear and you will need to squeeze through the box trees.
Follow the cliffs for about 2 km. Pass the Col de Staton and the sheepfold that can be seen below on the right. Reach the Pas de la Pousterle, marked by a cairn, located in a small hollow before the last wooded peak preceding the grasslands of the Montagne du Raton.
(8) Turn right onto a straight path through the boxwood trees and join the grasslands of the Col de Staton.
(9) At the picnic table, at the crossroads of several tracks, continue to the right, towards the west, on the track that descends the left side of the valley. Leave a track on the right and follow the track to the edge of the woods.
(10) At the exit of the hairpin bend, leave the track and take the small stony path on the right that descends. At the small stream of Ravin de la Fayolle, continue to the right for a few metres and join the small forest hut.
(11) Leave the trail on your right, cross the stream and continue along the track opposite the hut. This climbs slightly and joins a large crossroads with a large clearing.
(12) Head opposite, towards Rémuzat, along the track on the left of the clearing. Ignore the track that descends to the left and continue almost horizontally. At the next crossroads, descend opposite for a few metres and join a new track.
(13) Cross this track and take the path that descends opposite. This path joins the track towards the bottom of the valley, winding its way down and crossing the track once again.
(14) Continue along the track on the left. After the descent and at the exit of the Pas du Loup gorges, when the track levels out, look for the start of the path on the right towards the Ruisseau du Rif.
(15) Take the Béatrix trail that descends to the right. Cross the stream and climb slightly. Continue along the side of the cliff on a steep, rather exposed ledge trail. Reach the forest where the route continues and rejoins the track taken at the start, at the exit of the village of Rémuzat.
(1) Follow this track downhill and return to the village's main square (S/E).
Just before the 1455m point, there is a very gentle path on the right (visible on the OSM map) that rejoins the original trail. Thanks for the suggestion. Definitely worth doing!
