Park in front of the town hall (coming from Lablachère, just after the unfinished church, which is itself a little after the hamlet of Le Suel). Address: Mairie, Le Suel, Saint-Genest-de-Beauzon.
(S/E) Take the road (D 407) northwards, first passing the unfinished church on your left, then most of the hamlet of Le Suel on your right. A path branches off to the left 50 metres after leaving the hamlet.
(1) Take this path downhill towards the Mézillon stream for about 150 metres, then leave it on the left for a path that leads to a bridge over the Mézilhon. Then follow the tarmac road on the left for 250 metres.
(2) Leave the road and take a paved slanting street on the right that crosses the Mézilhon via an arched bridge, then climbs up through the trees at Bas Darbous. Continue in the same direction and rejoin the road on the left until you reach a tennis court.
(3) Turn left and walk alongside the tennis court. About 100 metres after the tennis court, take the path on the left that descends to the Régimont stream, then follows it (ford) before climbing up between two walls. When you see the houses, before the roads and the hamlet of La Ribeyre, a grassy path climbs up on the left.
(4) Climb this path, which joins the tarmac access road to Raynal. Follow it to the left for about 50 metres and then, at the end, take the path on the right heading north. This leads to the hamlet of Monteillet. At the tarmac road, take the path that runs along the right side of the hamlet and joins the D407. Follow the road to the left for about 100 metres until you reach a left-hand bend.
(5) At the bend, leave the road on the right and take the path towards Monteil. After about 300 metres, at the three-way junction, keep right and then, after a few hundred metres, turn left at the T-junction. Go around the hamlet of Monteil on the left and take the road (heading approximately north-west) for about 200 metres.
(6) A path branches off to the right. Descend into the pine trees, cross the stream and continue between the low walls. At the junction with a wide path, leave Salette on your left and continue straight ahead until you reach the tarmac road. Follow this road to the left, then turn right at the next crossroads and continue for about 100 metres.
(7) Descend to the right along the path that leads to the hamlet of Cros. After the hamlet, cross the D407 and walk along the right-hand side of the church and cemetery. When you reach the fields, keep left at the crossroads and walk along the fields to reach the hamlet of Salel. At the exit of this hamlet, a path descends to the left.
(8) Descend this path heading south. At the T-junction, turn right. Pass under the hamlet of Darasse (on your right). Join a road and find a path climbing south-west, roughly opposite. At the tarmac road, keep right and continue climbing along the forest track. About 50 metres after a hairpin bend to the left, a path climbs up to the right.
(9) Follow this path, which then descends and joins some houses. Continue along the wider path in the same direction until you reach the next three-way junction.
(10) Turn sharply left at the hairpin bend. Pass to the left of a large house (l'Espit) and continue along the path. After two hairpin bends, you will rejoin a wide path (heading south-south-east). When you leave the woods, turn left after crossing an olive grove to reach the D 407 and Salette. Turn right onto the D407 and continue for about 100 metres.
(11) At the crossroads in the right-hand bend, continue along the road for about 100 metres. Take the path on the right as an alternative to the road, which you will rejoin as you approach Le Suel and the starting point. (S/E)
