Take the D65 and climb up to the hamlet of Le Daru, passing through the hamlets of La Coutaz, Le Fugier, Montesseaux, Lachat and Le Mondon. At Le Daru, turn sharply left and continue along a mountain road. Pass by the ruined chalets of Montagne des Prés. At the next hairpin bend (elevation 1496), leave the road (which turns right) and take a left onto a track towards Soplat des Nants. At a fork (elevation 1484), keep left. Stop at the junction with the next track on the left (car park; sign indicating Le Bognion and Les Enverts).

(4) Turn right and climb up to reach the Refuge du Sopla des Nants.
