From Saint-Ambroix or Barjac, take the D51 to Saint-Victor-de-Malcap. At a wayside cross, turn right towards the village and cross it via Rue de la Villarde. At the end of this street, turn left until you reach a small car park.
(S/E) From there, turn right and then immediately left onto Rue de la Coste. At the first fork, turn left onto Rue de la Coste. Continue along this road until you reach Rue de la Villarde, where you should turn right. Continue until you reach a wayside cross at the intersection with the D51.
(1) Cross the D51 and take a small road. At the first fork, turn right. After a left-hand bend, the road becomes a path. Continue along this path, which turns sharply once to the right and once to the left. At the next fork, turn right onto a path that passes in front of a ruin (look out for it!).
(2) Shortly afterwards, follow the path on the left to the Moulin du Roc Tombé. This spot is a popular swimming spot in summer.
(3) From here, retrace your steps for a few dozen metres and take a path on the right. Continue along this path until you reach a fork, where you turn right. Suddenly, the trail disappears, as vegetation has reclaimed its rights. Locate the ruins from the outward journey and head towards them. After a few dozen metres, you will rejoin the path.
(2) Take it on the right and retrace your steps to the calvary and the D51. Continue as on the way there and, in Rue de la Villarde, follow Rue de la Merline on the left. At the top of the latter, continue to the right until you reach the water tower.
(4) Pass to the left of the water tower and turn left onto a road (Chemin des Pins). Continue along this road. On the left, there are views of Saint-Ambroix. This road turns into a path. Stay on the main path until you reach what appears to be a hunting lodge.
(5) Continue along this path, which enters a pine forest, and at a fork, take the right-hand path. The intersection with a path coming from the right.
(6) Turn left. The path climbs and after the second bend, turn right at an intersection. Continue along this path until you reach the Saint-Sauveur road.
(7) Follow it to the left for a few hundred metres. At a left-hand bend, take a path leading off to the right and then thefirst path on the left.
(8) At an intersection (signposted "Lerou"), turn left towards the Lerou lake, which you will reach after a short descent. Continue to the end of the lake, then retrace your steps to the signpost.
(8) Turn left towards Saint-Victor-de-Malcap. At the first intersection, continue to the right and at the next intersection, turn left and immediately take a path on the right. Continue along this path until you reach Chemin des Petites.
(10) Follow this small road to the left until you reach an intersection with another road.
(11) Continue on the left. Beautiful view of Saint-Victor-de-Malcap and its castle. After passing Valat de Truncat, turn left at the fork. You will soon arrive at a calvary. Continue to the right until you reach the car park (S/E).
