(S/E) From Les Bois de Malaguet, go around the buildings on the left until you reach the road. Follow it to the left and take the bend. Continue on the downhill track, then straight ahead on the road before turning right to reach the Lac de Malaguet car park. Turn left onto the Sentier des Libellules trail which runs alongside the lake. After a short climb, you will reach the road.
(1) Turn right and keep left until the second crossroads (towards Dignac), then leave the road and take a forest track. Continue along the track on the right at the intersection. Continue along the track (uphill) and keep right until you reach a road.
(2) Go right until you reach a sharp right-hand bend. Leave the road and take a path on the left, following the yellow markings. Ignore a crossroads, then turn right onto a path that descends and joins a road. Follow it to the left, then straight on to the stream and its crossroads.
(3) Leave the path and the yellow markings to take the path that climbs through the forest on the right. Join the district road, cross it and take the path directly opposite. Follow it, cross the old railway line, and the path leads to a road and descends to the hamlet of Mortessagne.
(4) At the intersection, take the road on the left. After the hamlet, leave the road and take a path on the right. Turn right again to join a road. Keep left downhill to a bend.
(5) Follow a forest track on the right (yellow markings) at a picnic table. Continue straight ahead on the track. When you reach a cross, leave the main track and continue to follow the yellow markings, taking a path on the right. When you reach a road, follow the yellow markings to the left, cross the hamlet of Le Favet and continue to the departmental road.
(6) When you reach the main road, leave the yellow markings and turn left. Follow the main road for 100 metres before taking a path on the right. Follow it through the forest. Be careful, there is a difficult descent by mountain bike before reaching Lac de Malaguet (quiet area).
(7) Continue on the left along the path that runs alongside the lake (small paths allow access to the lake shore in places). The path leads to the road. Take the route in the opposite direction to the outward journey to return to Malaguet (S/E).
