Access via the village of Les Vans, taking the D216 then the D251 towards Brahic. On leaving the village, turn right towards Malons-et-Elze.
The start of the walk is in the hamlet of Le Frontal, where there are several places to park.
(S/E) Continue on foot along the road until you reach the first fork, where you take the right-hand road until you reach a second fork. Continue straight on (the right-hand road leads to the village centre).
(1) Leave the road and take the path on the left to the hamlet of Playsse.
(2) After the houses, just before reaching the junction with the road, take the path that descends to the left, crosses the footbridge over the Redon and leads to the hamlet of Valouse. Turn left onto the road and follow it for about 150 m.
(3) A few metres before the bend to the left, follow a path that branches off to the right (not necessarily visible at first glance as it leads off at a sharp angle) and joins a road.
(4) At the signs at the entrance to Cessenades, continue uphill to the centre of the village. A lovely little rest area with a fountain and a bench is well worth a stop.
(5) Just before leaving the village, take the narrow lane on the left which becomes a path and crosses a road a few dozen metres further on. Cross a stream and continue along the path to the village of Pialouzet.
(6) On leaving the village, follow the road for a few metres. Leave it to take the path branching off to the right, leading to the footbridge over the Redon.
(7) After the footbridge, the path branches off to the right. Then continue straight on, following the markings until you reach a road.
(8) Head up the road to the left and continue straight on to reach the starting point (S/E).
