The starting point is near the sports ground next to the town hall of Saint-Georges-de-Commiers: plenty of parking spaces.
(S/E) Leave the car park, walk past the town hall and school, then turn right. Follow a good path that runs more or less alongside the old railway line.
(1) At a place called Le Grillon, turn right, cross over the railway line and turn left.
(2) At the orientation table, stay on the path on the right which descends slightly (there are orange hiking signs and orange markings). Join the railway line.
(3) Continue on the path that descends to the right and follow the orange markings. The path descends to cross the Ruisseau des Commiers stream, then climbs again. It makes a wide circular loop, crosses the railway line three times and joins the village of Notre-Dame-de-Commiers at Chemin des Pauttats.
(4) Follow it to the right for about 300 metres, turn left to join the D529 and turn left. Follow the road for about 20 metres, cross carefully and continue opposite on Chemin des Gourgy. Follow it for about 400 metres.
(5) Turn left onto a path that descends towards the Ruisseau des Commiers and crosses it. Follow this path through meadows and woods to a crossroads.
(6) Turn right and follow a path that climbs northwards to the intersection of four paths.
(7) Continue on the path opposite, still heading north. After a short climb, you will reach the Pierre du Soleil.
(8) Descend to the left towards the hamlet of Les Chauvers, join the small Route de Lachal and turn left. Keep to the right and begin the descent towards Saint-Georges-de-Commiers via the Montée du Moulin until you reach the D529.
(9) Cross carefully, turn left onto Rue du Sautaret (slightly below the departmental road) then turn right onto Montée de Saint-Georges to reach the school, the town hall and the starting point at the sports ground car park (S/E).
. I recommend taking a short detour to the centre of Saint Georges to admire the church and the fortified house. Thank you!
