Please note: much of this route is signposted with signs and markers from the Departmental Council, sometimes green, sometimes yellow and sometimes both green and yellow. The colour is not important for this route. Some markers are missing at junctions.
Note: during wet weather, some paths can become very muddy.
(S/E) Set off by following the D124 on the left-hand side (northbound) for about 200 m, before turning left onto a small road leading to Lac de Sigalens, located about 1 km away.
(1) "When you reach the lake, take a moment to have a stroll; there are several picnic tables available in the shade". Then leave the area via the wide path on the left that runs alongside the lake. When you reach a post with several signposts indicating various circular loops, take the left-hand path towards “Pays de Grignols” (marked in yellow). The path then climbs through the woodland before reaching the plateau.
Turn right and walk along the edge of a field, then zigzag a little before reaching the D124. Cross it carefully and follow it to the right (south) for about 200 m.
(2) Turn left onto the very narrow road, which soon becomes a dirt track, descending through the woods and joining a small road that more or less follows the course of a river (the Lisos). Follow this road to the right for about 400 m.
(3) At this point, let a forestry track branch off to the right. Take a small, unmarked path starting on the left, running alongside a fence, which quickly leads to the river. Ford the river (sandy bed); otherwise, simply veer slightly to the right to reach a sturdy footbridge formed by several concrete posts laid across the river. After crossing, walk back 15 m to the left to find the continuation of the path.
Then climb the hillside through the woodland. The well-marked path winds slightly before climbing steeply until it runs alongside the hamlet of Le This. Continue along the path, which widens and runs along the edge of the plateau.
(4) At the next crossroads, where you’ll see the signs for the departmental paths, take the path opposite. Continue pleasantly along the edge of the plateau, still in the shade, and you’ll emerge in another hamlet (Les Rochereaux) onto a small road at a crossroads well-marked with signposts. The church at Campin can be glimpsed on the right, so head in that direction.
(5) Campin church is unique and very old. To visit it, you’ll need to ask for the keys; in the meantime, the view of the surrounding area is remarkable. Set off again, retracing your steps along the same small road to the signposts, then head towards Sigalens, keeping to the right for 500 m.
(6) There are signposts for Sigalens. Follow a good path to the left through the woods, running alongside a large pidgeon hunting hut which crosses over the path via a bridge. Still in the woods, head down the hillside to reach another small road; follow this to the right until you reach the hamlet of Laverrière on the banks of the Lisos (an old mill?), then to a crossroads.
(7) Take the road slightly to the left for about 150 m, and leave it at the next bend to take a dirt track heading straight on and climbing through the woods. On leaving the woods, walk alongside fields bordered by beautiful trees (the hamlet of La Traverse) before reaching Sigalens and the church (S/E).
