(S/E) From the car park at Place de l'Église in Largentière, climb the Tauriers road on the right for about a hundred metres.
(1) Then take a path on the left that climbs up to cross the C3 "Chemin de La Madeleine". Cross the road and continue climbing up a path that passes to the left of a house and runs along a stone wall.
Please note: follow this yellow and white marked path carefully until you reach Tauriers. It climbs, sometimes quite steeply, to a pretty house on the right, which is accessed by a good carriage road (beautiful view of the valley). Continue along this road until you reach the Route du Taurinet, which you should follow to the right for a few dozen metres.
(2) Leave this road and take a path that branches off to the left into the woods (yellow and white markings). After a few small bends, the path heads north and passes above a few houses before reaching Tauriers via the cemetery. Walk along the cemetery and continue along a grassy path that leads to the village. Enter the village between the castle and the church and continue towards the town hall.
(3) Leave the village via the Route du Mas, which heads south.
(4) Before the last houses, turn left onto "la montée de l'église" (church hill), reach the church by passing under the castle, then return to the cemetery via the same path you took to enter the village. Walk along the cemetery but ignore the marked path on the way there, which branches off to the left, and take the one that goes "flat" almost due south.
Note: this path, which is unmarked but fairly obvious and very clear, offers a beautiful view of the Largentière valley on the left, the Tanargue massif and the Vivarais mountains. Continue straight ahead and enter the forest, coming out 600 metres further on.
(5) Ignore the path that comes from the right of the old church just before a few houses, go down a few steps which, passing a telecommunications pylon, lead to a small road running alongside scattered houses. Go down the road, passing pretty gardens, and after a few metres leave it at a right-hand bend.
Take a path branching off to the left and descend gently, passing some houses. After 200 metres, the path leads to a road which you should follow downhill for a few metres before turning onto a path that branches off to the left between two stone walls.
Follow it for about 50 metres before coming to a road. Go down it on the left.
Before a bridge, turn left at a stone cross. Cross the road on the left and go down a few narrow steps that lead to a good path. The path crosses the road again. Continue downhill for a few dozen metres.
The path leads to a road. Take it to the right for about 100 metres and, at the last house before the bend, turn onto the slightly steep path that branches off to the left before widening and ending opposite the church and the (S/E).
Easy to classify, I think that in the first part it would be middle class, compared to the upper part where there are high steps and lots of stones for people who have difficulty moving around.
