Reach Cervières and take the road, now completely tarmac, to Fonts de Cervières. Park on the grass car park before the hamlet of Bourget.
(S/E) Take the Aigalans path to reach the hamlet of Cabot.
(1) Take the path on the left which, between the Grande Combe and Cabot streams, leads to the mountain pastures of this large area. Begin a fairly steep climb followed by a much flatter section to reach a crossroads (sign).
(2) Continue to the right on an excellent path to reach the Col de Chabaud, where you will find a sign and, more importantly, boundary marker no. 37.
(3) Take the same route back to the previous crossroads.
(2) Take the path on the right leading to border marker no. 33-1, continue into Italy and reach the Col de Bousson, marked by border marker no. 32.
(4) Return to France via the path heading west, quickly skirt around a small lake and, heading south-southwest, reach another lake with a sheepfold on its shore.
(5) Continue along this good path through the mountain pastures to reach the hamlet of Rif Tord.
(6) Join a wide track that leads to the hamlet of Les Hugues and the Chemin de l'Aigalans trail you took at the start. A few metres further on, you will return to the car park (S/E).

; the idea is to keep a steady pace and not hesitate to take breaks during the climb.
