Park in the car park of the church in the hamlet of Pas à Brès, 3km north-west of Payzac on the D207.
(S/E) Continue straight on the D207 for 100m. At the junction of the D207 and the D250, take the forest track opposite.
(1) At the first hairpin bend, turn right onto the path that climbs gently through a pine forest. Ignore the descending tracks and stay on the ascending path. At around 580 metres, turn left and join a forest track. Follow this track to the right for about 50 metres.
(2) Take the path on the left towards Termes, which descends gently to the departmental road. Cross this road and take a path opposite that runs alongside the houses and leads to the Termes sign.
(3) Follow theGRP® "Le Cévenol" (red and yellow markings) to the right (north) towards Saint-Jean de Pourcharesse. The path descends gently to a footbridge over the Ruisseau du Pont stream and then climbs back up towards Enjalvinès. Follow the path, cross a small road and head towards the church.
(4) Pass above the church and rejoin the D207. Follow this road to the left for about 700 metres.
(5) Then take a path on the left that becomes a trail towards Dépoudent. At a fork, keep to the right-hand trail, which is slightly downhill. Cross a first stream, stay at about the same level and cross a second stream (often dry). Climb back up towards the hamlet of Dépoudent.
(6) Cross the hamlet and head towards Terrus. Turn left (south-west) downhill and leave theGRP® trail on your right. Cross the Devèze stream, turn left and follow the balcony path to the hamlet of Terrus.
(7) Then take the forest track on the left downhill to the D350.
(8) Follow the road to the left, still downhill, for about 600m.
(9) At a left-hand bend, turn right onto a path towards the hamlets of Vigne Merle and Le Puech. Cross Vigne Merle, the path descends to the Sure stream, cross it and then climb back up towards Le Puech. Before reaching Le Puech, turn right and climb up to the D350.
(10) Follow the road to the left and cross the hamlet.
(11) After the last house, at the Les Altrassets sign, take a path on the left, cross the Chanabeyre stream and then climb up the small tarmac road towards Les Altrassets.
(12) Take a path on the left that descends through the chestnut trees. Then turn left to pass under the Altrassets house and head towards the Pont de la Planche bridge. At the bridge, the path climbs up to a forest track.
(13) Take the track on the right, pass in front of a house under renovation and take the path opposite towards Pont de Fra.
(14) After the bridge, the path climbs steeply to join a track, which we leave for a path on the left marked in white and yellow, which leads back to the Termes sign.
(3) Join theGRP® "Le Cévenol" and follow it downhill, heading west.
(15) After the hamlet of Serre, continue onthe GRP® on the right (south-east). The path winds its way up the hillside through pine and arbutus trees to Gounenche. Be careful not to go back up the D207, but keep to the path on the right, following the markings.
(16) At Gounenche, follow the grassy path towards Les Aliziers. At Les Aliziers, leave theGRP® and keep to the road on the left to return to Pas à Brès (S/E).
