Cross the village of Saint-Mélany. Before Le Villard, park in the car park on the left in the bend.
(S/E) Head towards Le Villard and, at the crossroads, take the tarmac road down to the right. Follow the white-yellow markings. At the end of the road, continue along the path that passes above the houses (stone walls and slate roofs)
(1) At the "l'Eyrolle" mast, turn left towards Dompnac and Saint-Régis via theGR® de Pays "Le Cévenol" trail, marked in yellow and red.
Pass through the hamlet of Eyrolles, cross the access road above to take the Sentier des Lauzes with its works of art.
600 metres after crossing the road, a series of carved stone slabs set into the low wall on the right invite you to follow them. You will need to return to their starting point to continue along the marked trail, which descends towards the stream on the right as you return (on the left if you have not descended).
There are other works of art to discover along the way. Continue towards Buissière, following the markings.
After Buissière, the trail becomes a path; leave it at the first hairpin bend and take a path on the right towards Le Vernet.
(2) At the "Le Vernet" mast, turn left towards Dompnac. At the road above the Adreyt, turn left and then take the path on the right. Follow the GRP® markings. Join a wide path near Le Travers and follow it to the right. At the fork, turn left and keep left at the next junction. 50 metres further on, turn right onto the path.

(4) At the "La Croix des Lèbres" mast, take the white-yellow marked path down to the left towards Dompnac. Beautiful paved slanting street path, sometimes with a balcony view.
(5) At the "Le Théron" mast, head straight ahead towards Dompnac. In Dompnac, take the tarmac road that passes in front of the school and church. Continue downhill towards the bridge over the Sueille stream.
400m after the bridge, leave the road and take the path ascending to the right, following the markings. The path continues between the houses of Lachamp de Merle (lodge) and then descends towards Merle. Take the road on the right and cross the hamlet.
(6) After the last house, follow the white-yellow marked trail that descends to the left under the road.
Cross a first stream 30 metres before the Ruisseau de Sueille.
