Park near the church and town hall.
(S/E) Pass between the church and the town hall, then turn left into Carriera del Canconier. At the crossroads, turn right onto Chemin du Lac de la Tulipière. Ignore a street on the right and continue straight ahead. This is a tarmac road serving a few rural areas.
(1) Pass the entrance to a house on your right and continue left (south-west then south) until you reach a fork marked by a beautiful cypress tree.
(2). Climb to the right along a vineyard to La Tuilerie (a beautiful inhabited spot). Pass above the house on a path that is no longer passable by vehicle and climbs towards the Lacamp plateau. Take the bridge over the Ruisseau de Lauzet and begin the climb through the holm oak forest.
(3) Turn right at the hairpin bend and continue climbing the winding path through the forest. Further up, climb over the barriers (do not disturb any livestock if there is any). There is a spring in the woods on the right. Continue along the path climbing up the field. The ruins of Rabassa are on the left.
(4). Pass Rabassa, climbing south-east along a large field to rejoin a track in the undergrowth. Follow this track to the left (north-east) to the power line and a small pass.
(5) The return journey begins. Go around La Tulipière on the right and enjoy the view over the Madourneille valley and the village of Mayronnes.
(6) Continue through the heath to the north and then north-west, enjoying the beautiful view of the Val de Dagne. Join the track.
(7) Follow the track to the right (at the first bend, an optional path leads up to Taurillou, elevation 449, at the top of which there is a pagan altar).
(8) Descend to the right towards the village.
(9) At the bottom, at an intersection, turn right and cross the Taurize stream. Continue straight on towards the village centre and the church (S/E).
