(S/E) Set off along Chemin du Barrage, a small road to the left of the wash house. Walk alongside the cemetery, pass Gentil farm, then turn left and continue along the small tarmac road.
(1) After 600 metres, at the fork, keep right and take the track towards the dam.
(2) At the bottom, take a path on the left (do not cross the dam, stay on the west bank of the lake). Climb straight ahead through the woods.
(3) Cross the D103 with caution and continue climbing straight ahead. When you reach a flat area, take the small road to the right, which becomes a path and continues to climb.
(4) At a small ditch, turn right (do not be afraid of the barking sheepdogs: they are trained to defend the flocks but do not attack humans, so walk past them normally without responding).
(5) When you reach the first houses, stay on the upper road, turning left and then taking the cul-de-sac and Rue du Barry.
(6) At the crossroads, continue straight on along Rue de l'Eglise (D34) and walk past the church. Continue along Grand Rue.
(7) At the village exit, turn right onto Chemin de Riplou and then immediately left onto Rue de Castelnaudary. A little further on, continue along a beautiful path that passes in front of the Croix de l'Ourmette, towards the Lauragais plain.
(8) At the bottom of the path, take the road (D103) to the right which crosses the river. After 600 m on this road, at the crossroads, turn left onto the gravel path and continue straight ahead between the sheep pastures and holm oaks.
(9) At the end of the path, follow the small road to the right. 400 metres further on, in front of the houses, take the path straight ahead which follows a ridge offering a beautiful view of the valley and the Lauragais in the distance.
(10) At the junction with the D213, go down the path on the left towards the village of Cenne-Monestiés, then take the road on the right and after 100 m, turn left to find a side street that cuts across the bend in the RD. Continue straight on to the village of Cenne-Monestiés and the starting point (S/E).
