Start from the car park in front of the church in Le Mauron (a village 5 km from the village of Maleville).
(S/E) Take the road to the right of the cemetery towards La Teuliére. After about 150 m, take the road that climbs to the left, then the road that immediately branches off to the right. Pass the houses in the hamlet of Puech Mauron and continue along a dirt track. At the end, turn left.
(1) At the T-junction, turn right. At the next junction, with the water tower on your left and a view of the Monts d’Auvergne on a clear day, turn right (south-southeast) onto a path not shown on the IGN map. Descend through meadows and then into a wood.
(2) At the junction near the hamlet of L’Adrech, turn left and continue downhill.
(3) After about 250 m, follow the path not shown on the IGN map (an old, easily passable forest track, marked SP1). Go round the Maison du Fournet on the right and descend via a series of bends. Reach the banks of the Aveyron.
(4) Turn right and walk along the river on your left. Pass at the foot of a beautiful waterfall. Reach a junction as you approach the Pont de Vézis.
(5) Continue along the Aveyron to the Pont de Vézis (a very fine bridge over the Aveyron). Turn back to the previous junction.
(5) Turn left onto a discreet path that climbs up through the woods (signpost SP1). This path, which does not appear on the IGN map, is well marked and, after several hairpin bends, joins the Chemin de la Broutie. At the fork in the middle of the hamlet, turn right.
(6) At the next junction, turn left then immediately right onto an uphill track. Just after passing an old shed, turn right and head uphill. Join a road and follow it to the left, continuing uphill. Pass the hamlet of Teulières and continue along the road. Pass the hamlet of Le Puech Mauron on your right and you will soon reach the church (S/E).
