At the entrance to Roubion on the D994g, turn towards the village centre (right if coming from Pamplinet, left if coming from Névache). There is a large car park used for parking vehicles in summer when the shuttle buses are operating. Park, without obstructing other users, near the small ESF chalet on the left.
(S/E) From the ESF chalet, head south towards the D994g and walk down the road for a few dozen metres. Turn right onto a path that crosses a large, gently sloping grassy area towards the road and the river (during busy periods, this meadow is used as an additional car park). When you reach the D994g, cross it and continue along the path opposite. At the T-junction, turn right and you will immediately reach the Pont du Sergent Jean Tane.
(1) Cross the bridge over the Clarée. On the other side, turn left and walk alongside the river on your left for about 400 m.
(2) Then turn right onto a clearly marked path which veers away from the river and climbs through a larch wood. You’ll emerge onto a wide forest track (the Route Forestière du Bois Noir).
(3) Follow this forest track to the left towards Plampinet. This magnificent track winds its way through the larch trees, offering splendid views of the valley and the surrounding mountains. Cross a stream and reach a junction.
(4) Continue straight on and head down into the forest, staying on the track until you reach the junction with the Chemin des Arras (GR®®5andGR®®57).
(5) Then turn left and follow the red-and-white-marked path, which is more or less flat. Cross a stream, head down a slight slope, ignore a turn-off on the left and reach the Clarée at the Pont des Armands.
(6) Cross the river again. At the T-junction, follow a track to the left. Join the D994g, cross it and follow it to the left. Cross a stream and, after about fifty metres, look out for the start of a path on the right.
(7) Take this well-marked path and walk along the back of the shuttle bus car parks. At the next junction, turn left. At the crossroads shortly afterwards, turn right and you will immediately reach the car park in front of the ESF chalet (S/E).
