Park in the Étivaux stadium car park.
(S/E) Follow the road alongside the stadium for about 300 metres.
(1) Turn right. Take a short detour to the left across the field to get closer to the dolmen, then continue along the path. Take the road on the left after the first houses.
(2) When you reach the main road at a place called Les Chariots, turn right. Immediately leave the road and take a path that goes straight ahead when it curves slightly to the left. Stay on the main path, continuing straight ahead, passing between several ponds.
(3) At the crossroads in a place called Le Bois Grand, take the winding road opposite.
(4) A little further on, in a slight right-hand bend, take a very faint path on the left. This descends into a field on the edge of the forest and very quickly joins theGR®46(white and red markings).
(5) Turn left, along the hillside. Continue on theGR®46, going around the hamlet of Le Theil on the right.
(6) Just after Le Theil, continue on theGR®46, which branches off to the left when facing the Vézère.
(7) When you reach Chatras, ignore the road on the right and turn right to cross the hamlet towards the Vézère. Continue on theGR®46, descending on the left until you reach the road.
(8) Continue down the road and then follow the Vézère river.
(9) Ignore the path on the left, which will be taken later, and continue to the bridge.
(10) Cross the bridge, follow the road, and just before the last house, take a small path that winds up to the right. Then turn right to go in front of the entrance to Comborn Castle.
(11) Turn around in front of the castle entrance and return to the bridge, either by following the road, keeping to the left (route shown on the map), or by taking the much shorter path.
(10) After the bridge, go up the road on the left between the Vézère and the railway line.
(9) Take the first path on the right, marked in red. Climb through the woods to the departmental road and take it to the right, going uphill. Leave the cemetery on your right and enter the village of Estivaux.
(12) Turn right and walk past the church. Leave theGR® 46 on your right and walk past the town hall and the weighbridge. Then take the discovery trail on the right, which quickly joins theGR®46, which you should follow on the left.
The discovery trail is marked in blue and has a few information panels about the local flora and fauna.
(13) At the three-way junction, keep right on theGR®46(incorrect route on the IGN map). The path on the left takes you to Bounaix more quickly (15).
(14) Continue straight ahead to reach the Bounaix stream. Then retrace your steps and turn right to leave the GR® and join the road at Bounaix.
(15) Leave the blue-marked discovery trail at the top of the hill. Stay on the road instead of turning left and arrive at the departmental road.
(16) Take a short detour by turning right onto this road until you reach a cross. Then turn back as the path is private.
(16) Take the road on the right. At the crossroads, at a place called Le Mons, continue straight ahead on a wide path.
(17) At the crossroads, follow the path on the left and at the fork, take the right-hand branch to reach the dolmen junction.
(1) Continue straight ahead on the road to reach the stadium car park, taking the road on the right (S/E).
