Departure from the top of the village next to marker 12, small car park on the right as you go up.
(S) Head north-east, climb the paved path, join a road at a bend and continue climbing to the left. Follow a few wide hairpin bends and turn right at the fork. When you reach the Foussa stream, walk under the trees, follow the beautiful terraces and you will soon reach a spring.
(1) Leave the ruins of the Bastide de Viériou on your right and continue climbing up wide hairpin bends to reach the Baisse de Viéirou, where you will be rewarded with a splendid view (marker 145).
(2) From the marker, take the path on the left that climbs up the ridge, passing the pylon, but not before noting the ruins below on the left.
Descend slightly, pass the Col de Coursegoules and arrive at the ruined sheepfold of Font Rousse, which is on the right of the path (note the tree).
(3) Leave the main path and take the path that descends slightly to the left, arriving at the first hairpin bend (of 21).
(4) Descend to the left on the south side and come out onto a track. Take the descending track on the left and continue to the first bend on the right.
(5) Follow the path opposite, which leads to the Saint-Michel Chapel, passing above a beautiful spring.
(6) After going around the chapel, descend to the left on the well-marked trail, ignoring the paths descending to the left, and arrive at a track. Turn left, pass above Coursegoules and join the Foussa stream.
(7) Ford the stream and climb back up to quickly reach the village. Continue straight ahead on Rue de la Pourtette.
(8) Pass the town hall and, at the next fork, turn left onto Chemin du Colombier. Pass above the cemetery to go around it and reach the car park (E).
