Third and final stage of the short Tour du Biros.The return route follows a very interesting and well-marked path, passing through Col des Cos.A lovely hut with a new roof, open to the public, is available at this pass as a new hut has been refurbished for the shepherd(s). There is also a water source at this spot.A very beautiful descent until you reach the GRP® Tour du Biros.Pass by the lovely Passerelle des Pichès footbridge.You pass through the hamlets of La Peyre and Frechendech before arriving at the car park.This stage is only possible when there is no snow, from late May until the mountain huts close or the first snowfall begins.

Second day of the Petit Tour de Biros.From the refuge, head due east along theGR®®10to the junction at the foot of the dam (passed the previous day).Continue uphill along theGR®®10. Reach a fork at the Col de la Serre d’Araing.Head left for a round trip to the Pic de l'Har. A stunning 360° view.Then descend via theGR®®10to the Mines de Bentaillou.Head north and follow theGRP®® to the Col de la Catauère (Plateau de Rouge).Then head down theGR®®10to Eylie.This stage is only feasible when there is no snow, from late May until the mountain huts close or the first snowfall begins.

A beautiful line hike, which requires you to leave a vehicle at the finish beforehand. From the village of Razecueillé, the route takes you directly to the Pic de Paloumère, offering magnificent views of the Piedmont to the north and the highest peaks to the south, east and west. The route to the finish is very varied: forestry paths, ridges, old paths that are a little forgotten and therefore poorly marked, beech forests frequented mainly by wild boar and roe deer.
