Start from the car park, located to the left of the D985A road, on the outskirts of Saint-Maurice-en-Valgodemar as you head up the valley.
(S/E) Return to the road and enter the village. After the town hall, turn right and begin the climb. A few more metres on and follow the street to the right, which then turns left horizontally. Take the grassy path on the right that passes behind a house and joins a road. Follow it to the right to the end via a steep climb, ignoring a path branching off to the left.
(1) Continue straight ahead along a path between two walls, running alongside the back of a house. Cross the stream via the footbridge and begin the climb through the woodland. After a few hairpin bends, you’ll reach a fork.
(2) Continue straight ahead towards the Cabane de Rochimont. This narrow path soon becomes steep and requires careful attention at times. You will reach the small Cabane de Rochimont.
(3) At the hut, turn right onto the path that continues along the mountainside through the grassy slopes. Reach the second small ridge (1,822m) and enjoy the view.
(4) Continue along the mountainside on the path, which begins a gentle descent. Cross two small streams, then, after two small hairpin bends, enter the woods. Reach the next fork.
(5) Leave the path heading towards the Six Cabanes on your left and continue down towards the Cabane de la Salette.
(6) Continue down the well-marked path. Mainly through woodland, rejoin the path taken on the way up.
(2) Continue the descent along the path taken on the way up to reach the D985A road and the car park (S/E).
