Park in the car park (free) along the Lède river. The yellow-marked trail partly follows theGR® 636
(S/E). Take the D150 (towards Monflanquin) for 300 metres, then at the end of the bend, turn right onto a path that is steep at first but then flattens out to cross the Lède on a small wooden bridge.
(1) The path then winds through the forest, crosses a field bordered on both sides by a fence, then winds through the woods again.
(2) After a stone hut on your right (hidden under the vegetation), turn right onto a small road which, 600 metres further on, near a building, turns into a wide, cobbled path at the edge of the forest, crosses a field, then enters a wood.
(3) At the edge of the woods, turn left onto a small road for 100 metres, then take another stony path opposite for 750 metres. At the crossroads, leave theGR® 636 and take a path on the right.
(4) At the crossroads of four paths, turn right onto a path leading downhill to the edge of the forest, cross a road (159m) and continue straight ahead on the path that leads into the woods. Cross the stream via a small stone bridge and climb up to the path that leads to La Bourdette d'el Tuc.
(5) Descend the gravel path. Pass the Moulin de Saint-Avit on your right, then turn right onto a path lined with dry stone walls. Cross the Lède (section shared with theGR®636).
(6) Cross the D150 road and climb the path opposite that leads into the forest, continuing straight on until you reach a road (204m). Follow this small road for 1km.
(7) After passing a house, turn left onto the small path hidden in the vegetation. After 250m, turn right onto a road. Follow it until just before the bend on the left and follow the path opposite that leads into the forest. Ignore the path that branches off to the left.
(8) Take the path on the right that descends towards the hamlet of Laurenque.
(9) Take the road on the right (leaving theGR® 636 which branches off to the left) and go around the church. Cross the hamlet. After the last houses, follow the grassy path opposite which leads to the ruins of the Priory of Saint-Sardos.
(10) Pass a calvary on your left and descend the rocky, slippery path that passes under the castle keep and leads to a street. Take this street on the right, passing under the fortified gate, which is a remnant of the village's surrounding wall. Return to the car park (S/E).
