Find the junction of the Bagatelle path on the D631 (elevation 155), between Briatexte and Giroussens. Park at the crossroads of a service road on your right. This is the starting and finishing point.
(S/E) Go straight up, leaving the path leading to Crudel on your left, which you will take on your return. Walk 1.6 km through the woods before reaching the tarmac road and arriving at the crossroads near La Brogne.
(1) At the crossroads, turn left onto the tarmac road and continue for about 1.5 km to the hamlet of Les Galiniers (signposted), after passing the hamlet of Saltré 150 m further on.
(2) Take a grassy footpath on your left; this path is not very visible and passes right in front of a house, leading to a gently sloping woodland. Follow it for about 500 metres to the hamlet of La Bousquetié.
(3) The path widens (suitable for vehicles) and curves towards the plain and cultivated fields. Follow it to the T-junction.
(4) Turn left onto the tarmac road in the middle of the fields to reach a crossroads.
(5) Turn left towards Prat Pastat (signposted) and climb up to Les Pauziés, about 1 km away.
(6) Take a very faint sunken path on your right; after 400m, pass in front of a house (Le Crudel) where the path widens. 450m further on, you will find your car on your right (S/E).
