Park in the centre of the village of Peyrus in the car park near the old weighbridge.
(S/E) Cross the village, pass in front of the town hall and leave the Grande Rue. Turn left onto Place des Tilleuls, cross the bridge over the Lierne and then the Route des Limouches, taking great care to watch out for cars.
(1) Then turn onto Sentier des Chabrettes opposite and head north along the hillside. Pass the statue of the Virgin of Vœux and continue to Chemin des Carrats.
(2) Turn left to join the D119a, then right towards Saint-Vincent-la-Commanderie, taking care to watch out for cars, and continue to the Col de Toutes Aures.
(3) Cross the road and turn left onto the path through the fields. Pass in front of a farm building and continue to the crossroads of Chemin des Petites Peyrouses and Route de la Martinette
(4) Turn right onto the dirt track towards Bois des Rattiers to the north-west. In the woods, you will reach a crossroads with several directions.
(5) Take the path on the right towards Les Gallanchères and, when you leave the woods, turn left onto Chemin des Gallanchères to reach the farm of the same name.
(6) Pass in front of the telephone antenna, then walk along the edge of the woods. Cross the Route des Rattiers at the electricity pole and take the path opposite through the fields to reach the hamlet of Les Peyrouses.
(7) Continue straight ahead, join the tarmac road and then continue south towards the hamlet of Petit Lierne. Before the hamlet, in the sharp right-hand bend, leave the tarmac road and turn left onto the dirt track. Cross the Lierne river on the small metal bridge and continue to the Route de Chabeuil. This is the D68, so watch out for cars.
(8) Cross it and take the dirt track behind the farm, heading south-east. At the next crossroads, turn left and head towards the entrance to Les Arbods. Turn right onto the D68 with caution and you will soon reach the Peyrus car park (S/E).
, which is a shame because in case of rain, it may stick to your soles! Finally, the area from 7 to the tip of triangle 8 towards the finish is very grassy, but passable (and more pleasant to walk through than if you cut across the road). A quiet and leisurely walk, taking 2 hours and 20 minutes with a bit of dawdling, but the end of the route does not encourage you to do it all again.
