Park in the Deux Aiguilles car park on the D17, about 300 m east of the Maison de Sainte-Victoire in Saint-Antonin-sur-Bayon.
(S/E) Cross the road carefully and turn right onto the Noir path, heading towards the Refuge de Baudino. Pass the picnic tables, then arrive at a Y-junction.
(1) Turn left, heading north-north-east. You will come to a fork in the path and a cairn.
(2) Turn right and follow the Brown Trail.
(3) Turn right for a detour to a beautiful cave, then continue on to an X-shaped junction at elevation 555.
(4) Turn left onto the path that climbs towards the former site of La Marbrière, where remains of the quarry can still be seen. Explore the site and rejoin the Brown trail for a steeper climb, with a few rocky sections to cross, which are not difficult. You will reach a junction.
(5) Leave the Green trail on your left and continue on the Brown trail, heading east, which passes beneath the Pas du Clapier. Admire the scenery. After a flat section along the cliffs, begin a descent through the woodland. Then, cross some scree before arriving at the Barthélémy Baudino Refuge.
(6) Head east on the Red trail. After a steep and challenging start to the descent over rocky ground, the trail levels out, descending steadily as it winds around La Torque hill. You’ll reach a junction with a track.
(7) Turn right and follow this track, which alternates between ascents and descents. You’ll reach a Y-junction.
(8) Turn right and head northwards, before turning westwards, then south-westwards. You’ll reach a car park and the D17 road, at an elevation of 465 metres.
(9) Then follow the small path that runs alongside the road on the right. Return to the original junction.
(1) Continue straight ahead and return to the car park (S/E).
