Departure from the market halls of Saint-Jean-du-Bruel, in the centre of the village.
(S/E) From the market halls, go up Grand Rue (south-east) and turn right into Rue d'Algues. Follow the path straight ahead to the intersection where you will see the sign for "Château d'Algues".
(1) Turn right and, after 100 metres, take the path on the right that leads to a crossroads.
(2) Take the path leading to Fougayrolles, opposite you (west), and head towards the hamlet.
(3) In Fougayrolles, follow the sign for "Algues - variante" and turn right at the fork. Continue along this pleasant path through the woods (not shown on the map) until you reach the junction with the route from Castelnau.
