(S/E) Departure from the D12 Route d'Arfons. Park in the car park on the left.
(1) Take the first path on the right.
(2) Pass through the village of La Montagnarié, where you turn left. Continue, pass the Moulin du Baylou and follow the stream to the Chapelle de Mougnès.
(3) Retrace your steps, turn right at the signpost and climb up to the D12 road.
(4) Just before this road, turn left and take the path that runs almost parallel to the road (more pleasant than the tarmac).
(5) Turn right and climb the path to reach the road, go back 20 metres, cross (with caution) and begin the beautiful climb to reach the impressive statue of Saint-Stapin on the left.
(6) Retrace your steps, climb up opposite to reach the ridge and pass the Saint-Chipoli signpost overlooking the quarry.
(7) Continue along the ridge, keeping the quarry on your right, and reach the next signpost.
(8) Descend into the woods and join a winding road lined with fields. Leave the access to En Albouy on your left and, at a hairpin bend, leave the road and take a path on the left (close the gate behind you).
(9) Take a wide path on the left to reach the Saint-Ferréol desert and La Capelette.
::10: The descent towards Dourgne continues behind the chapel, following the yellow markings.
(11) Leave the path on the left and continue on thePR® until you reach Rue du Barry.
(12) Turn left and continue south. At the fork, continue right on Allée Mère Marie Cronier.
(13) Take the small path on the left that passes between the houses and rejoins Avenue du Marais. Turn left and return to your starting point (S/E).
