Park under the trees by the orientation table, accessible via the unpaved Chemin des Crêtes.
(S/E) Take this path north-east, following the red and white GR® markings. Cross the main roadwith care andcontinue straight ahead along the small road called Chemin du Château until you reach the goat farm.
(1) Carry on straight ahead (GR®) along the unpaved track called Chemin de la Salette. This track curves round and reveals the chapel and its cemetery. After the chapel, the track narrows as it descends towards Bellegarde and joins a small road, which you take to the left.
(2) About 150 m further on, turn left onto the Chemin du Roc (GR®65), which leads uphill. At the junction with the Chemin des Masures, continue uphill to the left until you reach the small road known as the Grandes Bruyères. Follow it to the left and continue uphill until you reach a crossroads.
(3) Turn right and follow the Chemin de Taravas. Once you reach the junction with the Chemin de la Combe d’Orge, the tarmac ends and the track continues on almost level ground.
(4) Leave the track heading towards Moissieu-sur-Dolon on your right and carry on straight ahead until you reach the forest keeper’s house.
(5) Turn left onto the forest track, leaving the GR® markings behind. Follow this main track to a junction where there is a signpost indicating ‘Font du Loup’. Turn left onto the path – which can be very wet – which descends towards the south and reaches a fork approximately 500 m further on.
(6) Turn right when you come to a small, narrow path ahead: a yellow marker confirms this turn. Follow the forest path down to reach the Font du Loup. Follow the yellow markings carefully, as the path is difficult to see, being hidden amongst the trees, streams and the numerous tracks left by cyclists who come here for off-road cycling. After several very easy fords, emerge from this valley and continue along the path to ford the stream one last time.
(7) Follow the main forest track, which climbs steeply. You’ll rejoin the tarmac road near the Ayats’ house. When the road turns right at a right angle, head straight on along the grassy path running alongside a field. You’ll come to the main road; follow it to the left for about fifty metres.
(8) Turn left onto the road and then immediately turn right. Follow this small road downhill until you reach the goat farm.
(1) Turn right and retrace your steps in the opposite direction to return to the grove where you started and the car park (S/E).
