(S/E) From the car park in front of Pourchères church and the hiking information board, head up to the right onto the D561. Ignore the next street and continue to the next crossroads. Take the small road on the left and continue to the end of the road.
(1) At the junction of two paths that follow it, take the path on the right. Stay on this main path, which is sometimes very stony, ignoring the various paths that cross it. At the Côtes mast, you will reach a crossroads with four paths.
(2) Take the path uphill to the right, towards Ajoux. This path then descends slightly, forming wide bends and running alongside the Pré Chevalier farm before reaching a small road.
(3) Follow this road to the right until you reach the village of Ajoux. Cross the village of Ajoux, between the old houses. The site is remarkable.
(4) At the junction with the D361, follow a small road on the left towards La Pra, Blaizac. A few metres further on, take the path on the left down to the hamlet of Cros. Join a small tarmac road.
(5) Take it on the right and walk alongside a sheepfold. The road gives way to a path winding through the undergrowth, crossing a stream and descending to a small tarmac road.
(6) Follow it to the left and reach the hamlet of La Pra (rural lodge). The path passes above the lodge and continues pleasantly southwards, crossing several streams.
(7) At the next crossroads, follow the path on the right, leading to the bridge over the Auzenet. Cross the stream, Auzenet mast, towards Blaizac. Continue to the next junction.
(8) At the Leyraud mast, turn left towards Blaizac and begin a long climb through the chestnut woods. Further up, cross the Ubac mast, continue towards Blaizac and, shortly afterwards, reach a hairpin bend in the road.
(9) Follow the road to the left, ignore the two small roads on the right and walk alongside the hamlet of Blaizac.
(10) A little further on, cross the road and follow the path to the left, then the path leading to Greytus.
(11) At the next junction, turn left towards Greytus. After a right-hand bend, the path descends gently towards the Ruisseau de l'Auzenet at a place called Le Moulin.
(12) Cross the stream and continue along the path. Reach the next PR® junction.
(13) Take the path on the right.
(14) At the next fork, follow the path on the right leading to Greytus.
(15) When you reach the road, follow it to the right until you reach the hamlet of Greytus. At the next fork, take the path going up to the left and follow it until you reach the Côtes mast you passed on the way there.
(2) Find and follow the path on the right, which is the reverse of the outward route, to return to the car park in front of Pourchères church (S/E).
